Subject:Re: Questions about (making) 3 window Westy Canvas

Wouldn't opening the windows with screens give adequate ventilation? But I
suppose if one needed to replace the canvas three windows does give an extra
advantage. On the 1989 Camper I bought the canvas is in mint condition.

I'm curious as to why anyone would replace their canvas.
