HI
I am just bought my 1st RV. - a used one. After my first outing, i noticed a
crack on the shower tub and some seepage on the floor next to it.. Beside
replacing with a new one, any suggestions?
Thanks!

They make patch kits. Do not look to good, but prevents leaks.

If you can't lay up fiberglass, find a local guy that can & lay in a
fiberglass liner over the cracked plastic bottom. You'll find them in
the Yellow Pages

If the crack is in the tub, the leakage might be under the tub and there
could be some water damage in there. Some tubs have some limited access to
pipes, etc. where you might be able to see under the tub.

Just had another thought. If cosmetics is not top priority, the above
product will stop the leak!

I used 5 minute epoxy and a credit card to smoot it out on mine (color
matched) but, my crack was on the wall not the floor.

There is a big difference when you are standing on it part time!! :-(

Visit Home Depot or Lowes and ask in the plumbing dept?
Better yet, post Q in alt.home.repair

If you have access to the under area of the shower, you might want to
inspect that area for water damage and to add some "soft support" like
Styrofoam under the shower so that your repair won't destroy itself via
flexing of the shower....just a thought.

It isn't the fall that hurts:)
It's the sudden stop:(

They make patch kits for cracked tubs. Try Camping World.
