What this video covers
The crew of Miss Lone Star addresses a persistent black mold problem in the aft cabin by removing the mattress and existing plywood wall panels.0:10 To remediate the mold, they clean the hull surfaces with a mixture of white vinegar and Mrs. Meyer’s spray, followed by an application of Wet & Forget to prevent regrowth.6:02 The project involves installing new tapered wooden supports, which are bonded to the hull using Sikaflex 291 to accommodate the curvature of the transom.7:14 To reduce future condensation, the crew applies half-inch closed-cell, adhesive-backed insulation to the interior wall, sealing the edges with heat-flashing tape.9:24 During the process, they remove and polish the brass window frames and trim protruding bolts from the transom nameplate.9:08 The renovation concludes with plans to install a new headboard and reattach the window frames to complete the cabin remodel.12:38
