Serenity is showing her age. She has some delmaination going on, and it
is not cost effective to have her re-skinned. When the sun hits her aluminum
skin it bulges out do to the expanding hot air trapped beneath. My low
tech/cheap solution was to use aluminum screw posts to pull the wall
together.

Posts come in 1/4 inch increments. You need one
a little shorter than
your wall is thick.

Sanded and painted the heads
before installation.

| Laying out the post's placement. |
I first drilled with a smaller drill, pop rivet diameter, in case I hit
the 2 inch square frame. I did not, so I enlarged them to the diameter of the
posts.
My
brother calked and held the post in while I screwed in the male end from the
inside.

Tonight I have a scenic camp on the Willapa River.
