Man installs bimini frame on Catalina 30 in marina
Τι καλύπτει αυτό το βίντεο
The owner of a Catalina 30 modifies the existing bimini frame to increase cockpit headroom and provide a mounting platform for solar panels.▶ 0:02 After welding 14-inch stainless steel extensions to the frame, the owner determines the height is excessive and cuts six inches off the tubing using a handheld bandsaw.▶ 12:13 To ensure a square cut on the stainless pipe, the owner wraps a dollar bill around the tube to mark a straight line.▶ 13:58 The project involves reusing original fittings, though corrosion on set screws complicates the assembly.▶ 5:48 The owner also considers fabricating a custom, four-legged hard-top structure to avoid relying on the boat's existing, less-stout stern rail.▶ 9:57 Separately, the owner tests a new West Marine Rib 260 dinghy with a 3.5-horsepower Mercury outboard modified to 5.5 horsepower.▶ 6:42 During a transit from Alamitos Bay to Island White, the dinghy struggles against 15 knots of headwind, maintaining only 4 knots and requiring the choke to remain partially engaged.▶ 17:33
