Build Quality and Longevity
The Cruiser Series utilizes the latest composite panel technology to make a strong, light and well insulated caravan. The roof and side walls of the Cruiser 18 is a single piece fibre glass/closed cell foam core composite panel, while the floor is a PVC honeycomb panel designed for impact resistance. Bonded together, they make a monocoque build of excellent strength and thermal rating. The load bearing sections of the roof panel such as the air conditioning mount are further strengthened with aluminium box section bonded into the panel itself.
The chassis and draw bar are hot dipped galvanised inside and out, making for an undercarriage that will last.
Water is the other limiting factor when going remote, so the Cruiser Series has what it takes to keep you out there longer.
2 x 95L water tanks and a 125L grey water tank allow the water conscious family or couple to extend their stay away from civilisation.
Hot water is provided by a Gas/Electric Truma system. The ensuite is a fibre glass pod construction and the cassette toilet is Thetford.
For when the weather’s good, the Cruiser 18 has a fully equipped external kitchen with a Thetford three burner stove, sink and massive stainless steel bench space and access to the internal pantry.
Inside there is an electric and gas stove top, and grill. A 152L fridge services the inside kitchen with the option of an external fridge as well.
