Waterproofing shower

We are out for the first time in our 2017 Jayflight 28RLS. This unit has the 1/2-circle shower with the doors that slide open to each side. We noticed that the sheet of plastic "tile" is not caulked or waterproof on the top. I am thinking that water will eventually splash up there and get behind the sheet and cause mold or rot. Checking to see what others have done.....do you caulk across the top of your shower?

Don't seal it. Doing so will trap moisture and WILL cause rot and mold. It's left that way so it can breath behind there. This is from a Jayco factory source that is a friend of mine.
