RV REVIEW
OUTSIDE LIVING
Our Atlantic Endeavour was built atop a 6in SupaGal chassis with a 6in drawbar . It used independent trailing arm coil suspension , 15in wheels and 10in electric brakes . Our van was not a hardcore offroader , but some national park work should be well within its wheelhouse . I noted that the PVC plumbing beneath was wrapped in a material similar to aggie pipe . Cheap and effective .
The van is framed in meranti timber and clad with composite aluminium , while the floor is 12mm ply , with a waterproof membrane applied underneath .
The storage box ( which incorporates jerry can holders ) mounted to the A-frame is rather ‘ slimline ’ in nature , but there ’ s enough space in there for some camp chairs . A couple of 9kg gas cylinders sit forward of the box . I wouldn ’ t mind a stoneguard here , though the position of the jockey wheel might make that difficult . There ’ s yet more storage in the form of a gal-lined tunnel boot .
