Moisture behind the u-shape dinette.
What have you been doing to rid the moisture behind the cushions?
I would do a search, but only one bar at times at the state park. Lol
"u saved" it must be Sunday. Lol

Hi: WanderBred... This is why it's good to have the vinyl backing on the dinette cushions. A quick wipe is all it takes. You can leave them tipped up and pop the MaxxFan hood for extra ventilation. Alf

Get large pool noodle and cut to fit behind your back cushion . It will have a more comfortable slat and help with air space to help moisture control . Pat

If you have issues with the cushions you must also have them with the mattress. See here for help https://www.mattressinsider.com/matt...SAAEgKwXvD_BwE

First you need to move from Port Angeles to a dryer climate. We live in the wettest part of Minnesota and still don't have problems.
If you don't feel like moving, open your MaxxFan a crack to create some airflow helping eliminate humidity, and keep a pool noodle behind the seat backs for a better slant on your back and better airflow. It really is all about airflow.
Enjoy,
Perry

I live in Snohomish maybe not as moist as where you are. I use pool noodles to add air between the material and the wall. I have never had an issue with excess moisture

I think the issue is the walls of the trailer are cold and your breath is warm and moist. Only solution is to stop breathing.

Cooking with propane is another significant source of water vapor (it's a byproduct of propane combustion). Not an issue with the furnace since its combustion air is vented to the outside.
