Teardrops n Tiny Travel Trailers

That would about 0.425 tons ( US ) …

ps. FoamStream survived ZETA … no problems

Just a bit shy of 61 stone.

Good thing after Zeta ( Nasty Zeta), we inspected the FoamStream, and found it all OK just leaves pressed against the outside , just a good washing should fix all … Sitting out in the same hurricane winds that snapped trees all around, the FS never even bobbled … the wind just blew Around it …. So much for worrying aerodynamics …

Note , square trailers blew over , or “away” …

About 387 kilograms roughly

I’ve got to say , last time we had weather not even this bad , a small limb put ten holes in my Jayco ( one completely through the roof ). Plus a hole in the fiberglass side … A $5000.00 repair from the Jayco Dealer (crooks!) … and badly repaired to boot …,

Foamstream … Nothing !!!! I saw limbs bouncing off the trailer , no problem … I kept looking out of the window checking if it had blown over ( very strong winds ~ 105 mph … ) No problems … but now we did use 18 oz. canvas to cover it , and in some places 3 layers thick … Almost 7 years living outside … Still ready to go ( after a good wash). That’s my test … This might be the year we give it a new paint job … something different . And I finally figured how to install that big window G-goose sent me … .. A “Foamie with a view “ … Good weather (cooler anyway) and the need to stay at home makes this a “build year" …

And we’d now like to build something a little smaller , sleeker, LOWER … not so much a horse trailer ( hahahaha) After all these years , we Know it works , is still Thrifty, and simple enough to make at home … and I still have that old Dilly waiting for a cabin .

And then , there’s all that other “STUFF” going on … Everybody PLEASE stay Safe !!!

April, time to start getting the FoamStream ready for hurricane season …. again … The inside is pristine , the outside is Filthy … Waiting for a nice warm day for the Big Wash !!! Maybe even a repaint …

Well, it’s full on Hurricane season ! Supposed to be an above average year … … again !!! FoamStream is ready for it’s primary purpose …. evacuation … should it be needed .
Other prep… we’re having several trees close to the house cut down to avoid any more damage to my roof … from falling trees … In 22 years here , the only damage to my house has been caused by those trees … Bye Bye !!!

99-L headed for us , getting the trailer ready …
