Qué cubre este vídeo

Ben and MP are converting their boat, Yabá, to a gaff rig, a project requiring the fabrication of a new boom and two gaffs.▶ 0:46 The process begins with sourcing ash and cedrinho planks, which are transported to the boat by dinghy.▶ 2:01 To construct the gaffs, the crew laminates three planks together using epoxy resin and a layer of fiberglass for structural reinforcement, utilizing numerous clamps to ensure a tight bond.▶ 6:02 After the initial lamination, the composite block is split lengthwise using a circular saw and finished with a hand saw to create two separate gaff spars.▶ 35:16 The crew also upgrades their ground tackle, replacing a 50kg Bruce anchor with a 65kg Delta.▶ 30:34 Additionally, they remove the existing furler and measure the forestay and turnbuckle lengths to design new hanks for the upcoming sail plan.▶ 17:22 Work on shaping and varnishing the spars is deferred due to inclement weather and upcoming travel.▶ 38:19
