Bongo Fury

Got the Bongo (new shape) up and running after lying idle since November. It was parked on a slight slope with the front lower than the rear. As soon as we started to move off, we heard a huge amount of water sloshing overhead, so we pulled-over on a bit of level road.
About half a bucket of water poured out the gutter and down over the rear light cluster (and yet, no leaks or drips inside.)

Later, we got the roof up, and the roof matresses and canvas are soaking; bit of mould on the canvas (how to remove without harming the canvas?)
Any idea where the water could have come in from? Does this sort of thing just happen every winter? (bought it last summer).

Had mine 4 years and never anything even damp and park mine the same as yours was,sorry can't help further.Plenty of info on mildew removal if you use the search facility.

Likewise, the mould is easily removed, we use Dettol Mould and Mildew remover, wash off after use and air to allow it to dry.
The only moisture as such is condensation inside the tent, air as often as possible and keep the skylight shutter closed as any moisture in the van will condense on the glass otherwise.
Sounds like water has got under the AFT roof seal and gathered on the top of the van itself which then sloshed out the back maybe ?
