You (Ted) said in your recent message regarding leaks:

....I get a lot of water in the side shelves when it rains......

I chased the same problem over the summer and finally found it was
leaking in from the curtain tracks. Eric mentions this too in his
message of earlier today. I was amazed at the amount of water that came
in through the rivets and finally replaced them with flat head screws
and big dollops of silastic under the tracks where the screws come
through. It seems to have worked.

I'm glad to see a little activity on the list. I was starting to think
everybody had taken up knitting or something.....

Regards
Rye
