What this video covers

Sven Yrvind applies a one-metre section of fibreglass to the hull of his 5.5-metre boat, Urwind.0:06 The lamination process involves laying fibreglass cloth over a curved surface, which presents more difficulty than the previous prismatic section due to the complex geometry.0:58 The work requires manual labour without assistance, as Petter is travelling to Spain and other potential helpers remain on the west coast of Sweden.1:26 The project nears completion, with only a few days of additional work remaining to finish covering the entire hull in fibreglass and epoxy.1:39 The application of the final layers confirms that the hull structure will soon be fully sealed and reinforced.
