Qué cubre este vídeo

Johan and Malin are building a 50-foot custom sailboat in a barn, currently focusing on planking the hull with 28-millimeter-thick cedar strips.0:23 To maintain structural integrity and speed, they are using epoxy glue rather than steam-bending the planks or beveling the edges, relying on thickened epoxy to fill gaps before applying fiberglass.7:26 The hull design incorporates significant fiberglass reinforcement, with approximately 2.5 kilograms of dry glass per square meter on the exterior and 2 kilograms on the interior to ensure puncture resistance and stiffness.16:51 The total estimated weight of the finished hull, including cedar, epoxy, and fiberglass, is 1,750 kilograms.17:27 The couple is also considering adding carbon fiber to improve fatigue resistance, pending cost analysis.18:03 Once completed, they plan to sail the vessel to Alaska, potentially via the Northwest Passage, followed by a circumnavigation of the Americas.22:01
