Has anyone any experience of re-sealing the ridge on the older style caravans (like our Swift Pirouette). We've got water coming in and collecting at the join between the roof board and the side wall.  The sealant on our van is largely life expired and I'm suspicious that the ridge seam may be where this water is getting in. Needless to say it's out of reach . Alternatively there is a fairly deep but small indentation in the roof, on that side, perhaps the skin is punctured.

Any helpful suggestions gratefully received.

Thanks Alan and wizard,

I hadn't found those posts. We are re-sealing the rail on the leaky side so I'll leave the roof rail alone and see if I've fixed the problem. As the water is right against the side wall that seems the most likely cause.
