I recently opened up my trailer (a modified CDN M101 with a custom lid) to go grab some chairs only to discover an inch or so of rusty water in it and a good growth of mold/mildew underway.
I had put seals all around the lid and tailgate, and plugged the drainholes, in an effort to keep it dust free inside when travelling our dusty logging roads up here.
It's worked pretty well for the last few years, but over this winter it looks like small leak has developed where the RTT bolts through the lid, and lots of condensation developed just from our general wet coast weather here in the Vancouver area.
Aside from checking it more often, and caulking up the bolt holes, I'm thinking of adding a small solar fan into the lid like this:

Should help with air movement and controlling the funk.
And some kind of crimped "motorcycle style" vent hose to drain any water that does collect inside.
Anyone done anything similar?
