What this video covers

The owners of an Outremer catamaran perform extensive hull and structural repairs while the vessel remains in a shipyard. The project involves sanding, masking, and applying epoxy primer to the hull and areas designated for Coppercoat antifouling.Watch Because the epoxy primer was applied outside the recommended recoating window, the crew sands the surface with 240-grit paper before applying the final paint layer.33:40 The team also prepares replacement pieces for damaged bulkhead bases, using cardboard templates to cut new wood sections.41:31 Work is frequently interrupted by weather, specifically rain showers and high temperatures that complicate the application of epoxy products.2:33 The owners prioritize finishing the trampoline attachment points to ensure the boat remains functional for a potential launch, despite ongoing legal and logistical delays at the yard.13:38 The crew notes that applying epoxy primer in cooler, descending temperatures helps prevent bubbles and provides a better finish.37:27
