Qué cubre este vídeo

Refitting a Cape George Cutter 36, the crew modifies the cockpit coamings from a traditional horseshoe shape to a flared design that opens the aft deck.0:29 To improve comfort and utility, they fabricate and install custom teak caps on the coamings.1:03 The process involves trimming the coamings to a straight line using battens and a belt sander, then dry-fitting and gluing teak segments to extend the coaming profile.2:07 Because the coaming is laminated, the crew avoids threaded inserts, opting instead to secure the teak caps with bungs.16:44 The design includes an enlarged aft teak platform that serves as both a water deflector and an elevated cockpit seat.14:46 The crew uses Bosch jigsaw blades for rough cuts and a router for final shaping, finishing the end grain with multiple coats of paint before sealing the caps with Sikaflex.11:04 The new configuration provides a stable, elevated seating position with the pushpit acting as a backrest.18:38
