The crew of Yabá restores and repaints the vessel's aluminum boom, transitioning from a standard finish to a custom color.0:33 After stripping the old paint with chemical stripper and a spatula, the team sands the aluminum and applies a yellow wash primer to ensure adhesion.1:30 They follow this with a polyurethane primer and multiple layers of polyurethane paint.9:15 To integrate navigation lights into the boom, the crew chisels recesses into the fairing compound to ensure a flush, sealed fit.15:07 The project also includes installing new bobstay supports and through-bolting platform supports to the transom using SikaFlex for sealing.3:27 Once the boom is painted and the hardware reattached, the crew uses a two-rope system to hoist the boom back into position on the mast.22:26 The final phase involves wiring the port, starboard, and aft navigation lights to the boat's electrical panel to verify functionality.28:38
