In my trailer I noticed that the shower panels aren't caulked around the tub. Should I caulk around it to prevent water from getting in there?

See picture below.
 
The floor pan goes up behind the wall panel so it should not leak, but the plastic rivets might. I would dab a little on them.
 
As advised above, a little dab of the best mildew resistant, silicone, bath tub caulk that money can buy would not hurt there.

Lily would have. That would have nothing to do with water! Everything to do with how hard it was to keep clean.

Like stated above, the tub has a flange so water is not an issue. If you caulk, will the caulk hold water in? that is the million dollar question. How many places that you have not shown us that might introduce water behind the enclosure? That should be answered first.
