What this video covers

Velocera replaces cable lifelines with custom-fabricated solid stainless steel tubing between the stern pulpit and the gate.▶ 0:04 Fabricator Sergio constructed the system using stanchion bases welded to quarter-inch thick stainless steel plates.▶ 1:15 These plates secure to the boat via four bolts threaded into glassed-in inserts within the bulwarks.▶ 1:19 The installation provides rigid support for potential heavy-duty tasks, including lifting an outboard motor or assisting a person out of the water.▶ 0:48 The current configuration covers only the aft section, with plans to extend the solid tubing to the bow pulpit in the next season.▶ 0:23 The owner considers adding a vertical support strut in the middle of the current run to increase stiffness for future crane operations.▶ 2:18 Solid stainless steel tubing offers superior structural integrity and versatile mounting points compared to traditional cable lifelines.
