A couple hauls out their J42 catamaran in Pilada for a week of maintenance after two years in the water.11:24 The primary tasks include replacing old brass through-hull valves with TruDesign composite fittings and relocating the toilet seawater intake by one meter to prevent interference between the inlet and outlet.5:09 The owner uses a step drill bit to remove the old valves and fills the original hole with a wooden plug bonded with thickened epoxy before laminating over it with biaxial fiberglass.6:43 Additional repairs involve stripping and drying localized wet spots on the hull stringers and keel area, which are then treated with thinned epoxy and reinforced with biaxial cloth.13:00 The owner also addresses corrosion on the outboard motor’s power trim hydraulic housing, planning to clean and repaint the units to prevent further degradation.14:38 While inspecting the starboard hull, the owner identifies structural concerns near the keel that require further investigation.6:44
