What this video covers

Sven Yrvind installs windows on his small cruiser by fabricating custom spacers to ensure a proper fit.▶ 0:00 He sources small pieces of adhesive-backed rubber to serve as the spacing material, which he obtained at no cost from a local supplier in Aaltobyg.▶ 0:17 The installation process involves testing the rubber strips against the window frame to determine the necessary thickness and compression.▶ 0:47 He allows the material to set for at least 24 hours to verify the final dimensions before finalising the seal.▶ 0:47 He applies a light coating of oil to the spacers to facilitate the installation process.▶ 0:47 This method addresses the challenge of mounting windows that cannot sit flush against the hull structure without an intermediary material.▶ 0:21
