What this video covers

Travis and Steph apply a large vinyl logo to the headsail of their boat, Jibsea, while anchored in St. Martin.Watch Because the sail had developed a slight belly from use, they use a portable projector screen as a flat, rigid backing surface to ensure the adhesive bonds correctly.4:29 They position the logo to avoid the sail's foot and UV cover, using a felt pad to smooth the vinyl and heat from the sun to flatten creases in the material.8:39 After completing the application, they sail from St. Martin to Spanish Town in the British Virgin Islands, arriving two hours ahead of schedule.15:51 During the passage, they note that their Makrolon dodger windows and Strataglass curtains have become scratched, gummy, and opaque due to UV exposure and rolling, making visibility difficult.14:28 They plan to replace the enclosure materials in the future.15:24
