What this video covers

Edgar and Davi reinforce the cabin top structure on both the port and starboard sides to support new mainsheet blocks.2:03 The project involves laminating a new 5mm-thick fiberglass structure to replace existing wood laminates, creating a mounting point for the mainsheet system that eliminates the need for a traditional traveler.11:53 The team prepares the surface by masking the surrounding polycarbonate to prevent resin damage.3:20 They apply a multi-layer laminate consisting of 800-gram woven roving and biaxial fabric, followed by a layer of mat.4:34 To improve flexibility and reduce the risk of cracking, they mix 5% of a more elastic resin into the standard mixture.3:53 A roller removes air bubbles and ensures proper adhesion between the fabric layers.10:10 The team completes four layers of lamination on the port side and plans to finish the starboard side the following day.11:04 This structural modification increases the thickness of the cabin top to handle the loads of the mainsheet system.12:05
