Jon replaces a rotten forward bulkhead on his boat, Antidote, by removing the original delaminated plywood and installing a new, reinforced structure.11:28 To maintain the hull's shape during the process, he takes precise measurements from the bulwark to the core before cutting the old tabbing.0:50 He cleans the interior fiberglass using a 7-inch polisher with a 36-grit flap disc on a low speed setting to minimize dust and prevent excessive material removal.3:20 The new bulkhead design incorporates a 9-inch opening for access and a dedicated through-hull drain system for the anchor locker, which replaces the original open-bilge drainage.14:01 To ensure a smooth structural transition, he installs foam blocks around the perimeter of the bulkhead to create a chamfered fillet for the fiberglass tabbing.20:30 He uses thickened epoxy to bond the foam and plans to secure the new marine-grade plywood panels with epoxy and screws.21:05 Testing the new bulkhead opening with a large sail bag confirms the size remains functional for storage access.17:42
