What this video covers
Sven Yrvind shapes and laminates the starboard side of the aft deckhouse on his boat.▶ 1:28 He uses a 50mm, 2-inch tool to create a radius for fillets, ensuring a smooth transition for the application of glass fiber.▶ 0:00 After shaping the structure, he applies multiple layers of glass fiber to reinforce the corners and surfaces.▶ 0:57 The construction includes designated cutouts for windows in the side and back of the deckhouse.▶ 1:44 While the finish remains uneven, the structural integrity is prioritized for the demands of the Southern Ocean.▶ 1:54 The process concludes with final interior work remaining. Proper filleting and multiple layers of glass fiber provide the necessary strength for high-latitude sailing conditions.
