Qué cubre este vídeo

Sven Yrvind is constructing a small, high-latitude shuttlecraft designed for a long-distance voyage from Ireland to Dunedin, New Zealand, via the Southern Ocean.▶ 3:27 The vessel features twin keels with a total draft of approximately 50 centimeters.▶ 4:05 To prevent damage during dry-outs, the keels incorporate bronze components intended to resist fouling and abrasion.▶ 4:43 During the installation process, Yrvind used guide pegs to align the keels with the hull mounting holes.▶ 4:37 A near-miss occurred when the boat began to heel excessively after weights were applied, causing the assembly to slide; the structure was stabilized with emergency supports.▶ 1:49 Future construction steps include applying fillets and reinforcing the keel-to-hull joints with glass fiber.▶ 2:46 The project aims to navigate south of Africa and Australia, with the boat’s buoyancy distribution adjusted to accommodate the keel placement.▶ 3:31
