The crew of a catamaran anchored in Carriacou, Grenada, performs emergency deck repairs and secures the vessel against the passage of Tropical Storm Ernesto. While working on structural repairs to the boat's hull and roof, the owners implement weather-proofing measures, including covering exposed wood with plastic and securing fenders to the trampoline to prevent water ingress.0:22 During the storm, the vessel experiences wind gusts reaching 47 knots, causing the anchor to drag on a sandy bottom.21:01 The crew engages the engines to relieve tension on the anchor chain and maintain position.21:08 The storm also causes the zipper on the lazy bag to fail, requiring immediate manual securing with lines.23:26 Following the storm, the crew resumes fiberglass lamination work on the hull, using epoxy resin mixed with colloidal silica and glass fiber to finish the repairs.3:31 The project involves grinding down old fiberglass, filling gaps with thickened resin, and preparing surfaces for final lamination.11:50
