Installing an AquaDrive constant velocity (CV) joint on a Cape George Cutter 36 requires precise shaft alignment to prevent excessive wear on the cutlass bearing.4:21 To establish the correct position for the thrust bulkhead, the crew uses a dial gauge indicator to measure the shaft’s vertical and horizontal play within the cutlass bearing.4:33 By dividing the total movement measured by the gauge, they center the shaft and lock it in place using a custom-fabricated device.6:29 A plywood template then marks the exact center point for the final aluminum bulkhead, which will be bolted to the AquaDrive assembly.7:39 Separately, the crew prepares a bowsprit for finishing by installing GRP tubes for chain rollers and hardware, using TotalBoat thickened epoxy cartridges for bonding.13:14 During an uncharacteristic Vancouver snowstorm, the crew clears heavy snow from the boat shed roof to prevent structural failure, as the temporary enclosure is not load-bearing.15:00 Cold temperatures delay final exterior painting, prompting a shift to interior priming and cabinetry work.16:22
