Qué cubre este vídeo
Nova Loman hauls her boat out for a three-week yard period to address deck leaks and structural damage around the stanchions and toe rail.▶ 0:00 After removing the toe rail, she discovers fiberglass cracks and loose stanchion bases, which she repairs by drilling out damaged areas and filling them with epoxy.▶ 7:24 She also removes and reseals the navigation light cabling that previously ran through poorly sealed deck penetrations.▶ 1:39 During the process, she repairs a broken section of the toe rail by gluing the fractured pieces back together.▶ 12:10 Separately, she troubleshoots a failed refrigeration unit, suspecting a fault in the compressor’s electrical control box rather than a refrigerant leak, and sends the component to a technician for testing.▶ 14:50 The project concludes with the reinstallation of the navigation light cables and the stanchions.▶ 16:46 Structural repairs on fiberglass decks require thorough cleaning and epoxy reinforcement to ensure long-term integrity when re-bedding hardware.
