Water in the underbelly...

2017 26bh. This year on the first trip out I noticed water leaking from the underbelly when the trailer was tipped forward. I cut the material and noticed that the first layer(Black) was holding water but behind the foil was dry. While looking for a source I found that where the wiring goes into the trailer in the front they left a big cut and it is possible that water wold run down and into this area. I live in Oregon where we get a lot of rain. I didn't find any other obvious sources. Think I am on the right track? and other problem areas I should look? Thanks.

They do a poor job with the finishing off from the underbelly on the front. Many TT's have water intrusion. Only advise I can give is fix it according the design problem as each TT is different. Even the cut outs can let water in during rain when travelling.

Just do your best looking for water entrances.
