The F-25C trimaran refit focuses on structural modifications to the daggerboard trunk and the installation of custom soft padeyes. To address the lack of a finish plate at the daggerboard exit slot, the builder templates the board’s shape using PVC foam core and carbon skins.1:34 After fitting the insert into the hull slot, the builder glues the sections in place, reinforces the area with fiberglass, and fairs the surface with epoxy putty.4:56 The project also involves removing old mushroom-style through-hulls for depth and speed instruments, which are filled with foam core and glassed flush to restore hull integrity.9:43

For deck hardware, the builder fabricates soft padeyes by sandwiching splayed Dyneema fibers between carbon fiber discs using an epoxy and silica fiber slurry.11:53 These units are designed to be pulled through the deck and secured with 4200 sealant, providing attachment points for lifting straps and rigging.16:42 Additional structural work includes installing G10 reinforcements for new net lashing points on the float edges.19:16 Proper fairing and structural reinforcement of the daggerboard slot ensure smooth board operation and hull strength.
