Qué cubre este vídeo

Sven Yrvind is modifying his shallow-draft, high-latitude boat to include a retractable wheel system for amphibious transport.▶ 0:33 The design utilizes a keel-mounted axle assembly that allows for the attachment of four heavy-duty wheels, enabling the vessel to be hauled up boat ramps or onto beaches for maintenance, winter storage, or transport.▶ 2:05 The installation involves creating a sump in the keel to manage water drainage and using epoxy and glass fibers to reinforce the mounting points.▶ 4:37 Yrvind plans to use this system to facilitate boat handling in ports such as Dunedin and Madeira, where he intends to pull the vessel from the water to clean the hull or move it to land-based locations.▶ 3:04 The process includes applying carpet tape to secure components during the bonding phase and ensuring the centerboard or daggerboard case remains clear of epoxy during the layup of the fiberglass and peel ply.▶ 4:16
