No, we seam-sealed it. What it was, the material itself would keep water out unless anything touched it, which was manageable for the sides but once there was water under the floor it would seep through wherever there was weight. There probably isn't anything being made out of that stuff anymore. Not really waterproof, not really breathable, bulky and heavy in comparison to today's tents, I hope it isn't being used.
It didn't help that the rainfly barely covered the roof, which was considerably smaller than the floor. Really, it's amazing how long we used that thing. And that my sister and I both still like camping.
