The Fern's Rig
When two hurricanes collide one is bound to win...
In early 2022 our friends the Fernandez family purchased a Class A motor home. They jumped and and began remodeling it to make it the home on wheels they invisioned. Months later, exhausted and overwhelmed, progress had come to a complete hault. Then hurricane Ian hit. Their rig was completely surrounded by water 2 feet deep and ravaged by the winds…
Discouraged they asked if we could take over and finish what they had started…
This has been one heck of a project. After arriving we found more work needed done then originally anticipated but, isn’t that par for the course. so far we had to remove a ton of the previously done work (by previous owners) before we could even start and we also found lots of previously covered up rot in the floor that needed properly tended to.
