Qué cubre este vídeo

Laminating a continuous toe rail on a 52-foot boat requires careful planning during high-temperature conditions to manage epoxy cure times and vacuum bagging schedules.2:04 When ambient temperatures reach 30 degrees Celsius, rapid epoxy curing makes vacuum bagging large sections difficult, prompting a shift to smaller tabbing tasks that do not require vacuum pressure.1:55 Using unidirectional carbon fiber without a carrier thread simplifies saturation for small components, though it may fray more easily than standard materials.0:25 Omitting peel ply during lamination leads to amine blush, an oily surface film that prevents proper secondary bonding.8:07 Removing this residue requires washing the surface with hot water and a sponge, followed by thorough sanding to restore mechanical tooth.9:43 To manage deck drainage without scuppers in the toe rail, the design incorporates deck drains that exit above the waterline, a system previously used on a Nyad 440.18:09
