Qué cubre este vídeo

Mads and Ava prepare their 40-ft sailboat, Athena, for a passage to Scotland by completing interior cabinetry and galley upgrades. They fabricate new cabinet doors and drawer fronts using leftover wood from a toe rail project, employing a router table to profile the edges and finishing the surfaces with a water-based stain and Goldspar satin varnish.1:40 The galley receives a Magma Newport II induction-compatible grill, mounted with custom hardware.2:03 Mads restores the mild steel emergency tiller by removing rust, applying a rust converter, and painting it bright red for visibility.7:59 The crew also installs a new head door and prepares six standard fenders and two large ball fenders for navigating the Caledonian Canal.13:51 A failed epoxy application on the countertops forces a complete sanding and refinishing, while a shortage of specific cabinet hinges limits final installation.9:51 The project concludes with the crew clearing out their workshop and moving all remaining gear and a 285-pound Perkins engine onto the boat.12:07
