Qué cubre este vídeo

The builder of the steel sailboat Rusty Junk works to align the hull-to-floor seams while the vessel sits on the ground in freezing conditions.0:16 To address alignment issues, the builder uses a hammer to manipulate the metal before welding, aiming for a flush, waterproof finish.1:16 The project requires lifting the hull to provide clearance for future keel installation.2:33 Initial attempts to raise the boat using poles and a jack fail, as the setup bounces without lifting the structure.4:39 A revised jacking strategy succeeds in lifting the hull, providing enough clearance to work underneath.4:54 The builder prioritizes completing the exterior seam welding and raising the hull before a forecasted five-day rainstorm, which will force work to move inside the boat.3:51 The current build progress reaches day 26, with the hull gaining enough structural stiffness to lift evenly on both sides.4:01
