If you have camped in a canvas tent you know that canvas should not ever "leak" but it will "sweat" to stay dry, don't lean anything up against it or sleep against it upstairs as the water will wick through to you. One of the best things I have seen in a long time was a "fly" made for the front pop top window allowing the window to remain open even during rain, also keeping the direct sunlight out but allowing a breeze through. This can be made from rip-stop nylon, very light-very strong and fastened to the front edge of the pop top at the brackets in each inner corner with a bungie cord or something similar and then to the front two tie-down on the luggage rack and back to the side tie-downs. Easily put on and removed by standing on the door jamb or from inside the poptop through the window. I have a picture of one I took at a meet in NH a few years ago and will send it if requested (if I can find it again). Happy (dry) Trails Wendy & John Cape Cod, MA '85 Westy, "S-CAPE" LiMBO members
