We got the rest of the roof off last night.

Have I talked about the ants yet??? Man, this thing was full of 'em! I think getting the last of the water damaged roof off will be the finishing blow with my fight with the little black buggers! I ended up having to spray around the house and RV to keep them from moving in/out.

Yeah, it does look like something off the evening news, huh! 
Well, no more mister nice guy! I'm gonna make a mobile dance floor out of it! 
Got the bathroom, closet, and mid wall out tonight.

I might as well just level it to the floor, fix any soft spots, then rebuild all the cabinets and go from there with walls and the roof. All this fooling around is for the birds! It'll be far easier just starting over.

Yes, leveling the entire chassis would be a great idea. Not sure if that was what you meant, but I'd go for it. It will make it a lot easier to rebuild, having a level base to work from.
Oops, just realized that you were talking about leveling (as in total demolition)to the main deck.
Anyway...you probably already figured to level the chassis....
And as far as the boat is concerned.....we're enjoying this a whole lot more! I work on a boat....RVing is fun....to me, boats are work!
Besides, (not knowing the size of your boat), having the RV will come in real handy, when DW kicks you out of the house for spending all your time working on either the boat or the RV.....The RV will be a whole lot more comfortable.
