What this video covers

Sven Yrvind is building a new small boat and has stretched the hull design from 5.2 meters to 5.6 meters to gain more space in the work area and forward sections.2:07 A CAD session with Marie recalculates displacement: the hull volume at the waterline comes out at 900 (units unspecified), with a wetted surface area of 13.7 square meters — both increased slightly from the previous iteration.2:42 On the physical build, peel ply is removed from a laminated section after allowing it to dry sufficiently; the surface comes off clean.1:29 Frame layouts are marked up, with frame 21 cut next and frame 39 repositioned to fit the available panel width.0:29 A laser is used to project the designed waterline onto the hull for marking, though that step is deferred to the following day.0:09 The work session ends with the hull clamped down for stability during the peel-ply removal.1:11
