Canvas separating on expandable trailer
Hi All,
My family has been using a 2017 Keystone Passport 171EXP for a couple years now, and just love it. But we noticed during our last trip that the top corners of the canvas over the forward bunk have begun to separate. It looks like the canvas is stitched into a plastic seal that connects to the frame, and that seal is splitting. The other side looks like it is getting ready to do the same.
As a temporary fix, I'm considering putting some strong tape over the gap to keep bugs and moisture out, but I am looking for ideas on something more permanent. Most places I've called about fixing it say they're booked up for the next couple months. I'd rather not wait that long, as I'm afraid it will continue to separate with use (and we camp 2-3 weekends a month).
Does anyone have suggestions on what I can do? Or will the whole canvas need to be replaced? Pictures attached, one is a closeup of the damaged area and the other is from further back to help show the location.
Thanks!
