The refit of the 43-year-old vessel Squib involves extensive hull preparation, interior cabinetry installation, and electrical upgrades. Peter and Sabina sand the entire hull by hand and with power tools to prepare the surface for a white paint finish, which they select for its heat-reflective properties in Mediterranean climates.5:49 The crew installs a new custom-built storage unit beneath the freezer box in the galley, requiring precise modifications to accommodate the non-parallel bulkheads and curved hull geometry.17:18 Peter also cuts new openings in the deckhouse to mount navigation lights, utilizing Amaflex insulation behind the mounting points.0:36 Additional maintenance includes cleaning and painting the anchor locker and forward storage compartments with bilge paint after removing old, improperly applied silicone seals.7:15 The project involves significant structural adjustments to the galley layout to optimize space for a stove and refrigerator, requiring iterative measurements and template creation to account for the lack of square angles in the cabin.17:18
