Τι καλύπτει αυτό το βίντεο

The crew of Magic Carpet, a boat currently undergoing a major refit, uses a full-scale cardboard template to determine if their new engine will fit through the companionway hatch.5:19 By simulating the engine's dimensions and weight distribution, they identify that the unit must be tilted significantly, with the front end entering first and the transmission angled upward to clear the bridge deck.5:57 The process requires using a come-along to adjust the engine's pitch while lowering it through the opening, followed by a transition to a skid system to slide the engine into its final position on the engine beds.18:42 Alongside this engine planning, the crew replaces wicker cabinet door inserts with wood panels to prevent mold in tropical climates and continues a total rebuild of the butterfly hatch, which includes installing new safety glass and adding drainage to the window wells.8:04 Brian, a marine engineer, also completes custom teak graving pieces to fill old chain plate cutouts on the cap rails.1:45 Creating a physical mock-up confirms that the engine will clear the companionway with minimal tolerance.13:48
