Qué cubre este vídeo

The refit of a Cape George Cutter 36 involves fabricating and fiberglassing new cockpit coamings and sanding the vessel's decks.1:01 To strengthen the coamings, the builder applies fiberglass and epoxy, noting that epoxy provides superior adhesion and waterproofing compared to polyester resin.2:15 The coamings are designed to support winch bases and potentially house rope clutches for lines running aft.3:22 While viewers have suggested adding scuppers to the coamings, the builder plans to test the current deck drainage first, as existing scuppers remain at the lowest points of the deck.6:02 Deck sanding utilizes a Bosch six-inch sander with 80-grit ceramic-based sia abrasives, which the builder reports offer high removal rates and longevity.9:03 To manage weight concerns, the crew replaces solid wood bulwarks with high-density foam, maintaining a balance that keeps the 23,000-pound vessel within its intended displacement.13:54 Interior work includes sanding and refinishing teak handrails to match previously varnished trim, with plans to mask the surrounding area for final varnish application.14:29
