Surveyor 251 RKS shakedown cruise
Our "shakedown" with the 251 was pleasantly successful. Moving up from a skyline Koala 19WQ (everything manual, no slide) was like night and day. All systems worked (I believe in Mr. Murphy's Law, and have 70 years of litigation.) I finally figured out the TV (at a rudimentary level), the first new one in more than fifteen years. Only problems, yes minor, were the knob on the bathroom vent falls off, the door between the living area and bath does not stay latched when moving (the jamb side seem a bit too flexible), and the drawer beneath the galley range does not stay shut when moving. The black tank flush on the far side is silly but only a small annoyance. The refer seems to bottom out at 35 degrees which is a bit too much. It took five hours on gas to get to 50 and that seems good.
