The crew of the 52-year-old yacht Uma removes the helm pedestal and associated steering cables to facilitate deck repairs and painting.11:49 The existing pedestal, which exhibited significant wobble, was bolted through the deck; the owners plan to replace it with a fiberglass-mounted structure to minimize deck penetrations.11:49 During the removal process, the crew discovered petrified bees inside the pedestal housing.19:13 They also removed the compass, which had been previously rebuilt by a third party with poor-quality spray paint and cloudy oil.13:47 The team intends to cut out the old pedestal footprint, glass in a new core, and seal the deck before installing a new steering system.20:19 While they considered moving the helm position, they noted that the current forward placement allows for efficient single-handed operation, as it centralizes the throttle, windlass, autopilot, mainsheet, and Cape Horn windvane.28:32
