What this video covers

Jorman, the owner of a sailboat project in Puerto Santo, continues the restoration of his vessel despite persistent rain and high winds.0:12 The project, documented in real-time, faces significant delays due to adverse weather conditions that prevent outdoor work and risk damaging tools and materials.2:36 Jorman focuses on interior tasks, specifically removing an obsolete gas line from the anchor locker and installing new polycarbonate windows in the forward cabin.7:27 To address chronic leaks, Jorman replaces the original 1980s window installation method, which utilised 72 screws per window, with a modern approach combining 3M adhesive tape and polyurethane sealant.13:19 He plans to reduce the number of fasteners to 12 strategic screws per window to minimise potential leak points caused by material expansion and contraction.15:18 With assistance from Yendi, Jorman presents the new polycarbonate sheets to mark and drill holes accurately.20:51 The project relies on community feedback for technical advice on fibreglass, plumbing, and electrical work to overcome restoration challenges.23:19
