Hello from Florida!

My husband & I bought our first TT, a 2013 Clipper 16b. We brought it home today.

We can't wait to take it out on our first excursion although we still have some purchases to make for it. We'll be buying a surge protector, water regulator, egg-crate mattress topper for the conversion bed, an extra hose. Any other suggestions are welcome.

Glad to be a part of the RV campers group!

Welcome, from the Pensacola area. We're still waiting on our TT, but I don't think that limits our ability to say howdy!

Welcome and congrats on your 2013 Clipper 16b. I would suggest adding a sewer hose and maybe an RV extension cord to your list.

Congrats on the trailer. There are some great parks in central Florida.

Check out Juniper Springs and Alexander Springs, too. Beautiful canoeing/kayaking rivers. It's been nearly 40 years since I was last there, but I have a lot of fond memories of paddling those rivers as a teen.

Welcome from Orlando! You are going through the same list I did for our 5er. Enjoy the fun. We just came back from four nights in Daytona. Great time to be there -- fewer tourists!

Welcome and happy trails.
I'm sure you'll find this site as useful as my wife and I have. All kinds of great info when you look around.

Best wishes!
