Hello,
You might consider cutting out the rotted sections back to good wood. Then install a new horizontal piece
under the old one. Then fill in where the rotted section was removed. I would screw the new piece from the bottom up to tie the new wood to the existing piece. Hope this helps.
Happy camping , Tom

The back brace that runs in the corner from ceiling to floor is gone. Suggestions on how to secure it? Should be glue it. Dont really see anything to screw it into with out causing a possible leak again.
You might be able to toe nail it to the top horizontal pieces and the floor. I like to pre drill a hole the use screws. I fine it a lot easier than trying to nail it. Also if I screw up or change the way I'm doing it It's easier to take apart. Once the corner piece is in the other horizontal pieces could be attached to it. Hope this makes sense.
