Qué cubre este vídeo
Construction of the custom aluminum catamaran continues with the installation of grey water plumbing, black water tanks, and recessed deck hatches. The crew mounts a grey water pump on existing stringers in the bilge to ensure easy maintenance access.2:36 To accommodate flush-mounted hatches, the team cuts and welds frames into the deck, requiring precise alignment to ensure the glass sits level with the deck surface.5:29 Because the pre-cut holes in the aluminum kit were oversized, the crew welds in filler material before re-cutting the openings to fit the hatch frames.6:01 The team also installs two 80-liter black water tanks in a wet locker, a task that requires precise timing to slide the tanks into position before the final welding of nearby hatch frames restricts access.17:34 Separately, the crew visits a fabrication shop to inspect custom aluminum-framed windows and doors, which feature twin brush seals, gas struts for 95-degree opening, and ceramic edge banding to protect adhesives from UV degradation.11:17
