The construction of the custom aluminum catamaran continues with the installation of a Jaffa rack-and-pinion steering system.0:57 The design prioritizes tactile feedback and mechanical precision, eliminating the slack and maintenance issues common with cable-and-pulley setups.3:38 The system uses stainless steel chain and torque tubes to transfer rotational force from the helm to reduction gearboxes, which then actuate the rudder tiller arms.2:08 Because the aft deck will be permanently welded over the steering assembly, the crew performs a dry fit to ensure precise alignment of the mounting brackets and drag links.12:17 The installation requires real-time engineering corrections to provide sufficient clearance for the torque tubes during full-lock turns.14:25 The project also involves balancing the vessel's weight, as the starboard side carries a diesel engine while the port side houses only an electric motor.3:24 To prevent galvanic corrosion between the stainless steel bolts and aluminum structure, the crew plans to use dielectric compounds or nylon washers.13:41
