Goat rails

[Pete Masterson]

Perhaps I'm a purist, but I can't imagine taking the goat rails off.
It might actually harm the resale value if/when you might decide to
sell your coach.

Yes, the goat rails are a pain. I live near several 150' tall
eucalyptus trees. For those who aren't familiar with them, they drop
leaves, acorns, and strips of bark constantly. These are a major pain
to clean out of the goat rails and from under the aluminum walks on
the roof. About all I could suggest is to perhaps raise the bottom
rail a bit to make it easier to push leaf little out from under the
rails.
