The Seamy Underside

I've been in contact with a couple of other Cruisette owners and "comparing notes".  The owner of 8059 wondered if a 4-foot gap in the belly-pan of his trailer is supposed to be there, or if that area above the axle should be enclosed.  I didn't have an answer, but was intrigued by the question since I often wondered if the 4-foot gap in MY Cruisette was "correct"  or just a hack-job done by a previous owner.

A sample of 2 does not get anywhere near definitive, but it is interesting.  If any other Cruisette owners stop by please share what's under YOUR trailer!
