Newbie from island paradise

Hi there, my wife and I just picked up an '04 21FB on Monday and pulled it home. My weight distribution hitch arrived this morning and my OEM replacement towing mirrors are on the way. The unit is clean and well cared for and doesn't look like a 10 year old trailer.
It is winterized so we brought it home and parked it with DriZair and a heater inside waiting patiently for spring so we can get in some camping.
We sold our '88 Citation C class this past May and tried tenting this summer. It didn't take long to come to the conclusion that I'm too old to be sleeping that close to the ground .

Congrats with your Jayco and enjoy your trips on the Island. The extended highway to the mainland is expensive. The Island self has much to offer.

Welcome to the forum.....sleeping that close to the ground caused me to buy my trailer.

You hit the nail on the head there. Last time we took a ferry to the mainland was almost 7 years ago. Plenty of great places to go on the central and north island without having to go too far.
