Qué cubre este vídeo
Johan constructs the first section of the cabin sole for his custom sailboat using a lightweight sandwich panel of PET foam, fiberglass, and teak veneer.7:19 To ensure thermal insulation and reduce weight, he avoids traditional plywood, opting instead for a vacuum-laminated panel.7:50 He templates the complex angles of the guest cabin floor using foam before building a supporting frame with a perimeter lip.0:48 After bonding teak trim to the edges with thickened epoxy, he vacuum-bags the veneers onto the core.10:27 The finished sole receives multiple coats of high-gloss varnish, though Johan plans to apply a final matte or satin layer to reduce glare and improve aesthetics.16:59 The design incorporates a recessed fit to allow for a perimeter seal and uses Dual Lock fasteners to secure the panels while maintaining accessibility to the bilges.22:06 The installation confirms the interior headroom and layout for the galley and cabin areas.20:10
