Acorn To Arabella · vídeo

Qué cubre este vídeo

Installation of bronze tie rods across the deck beams of the wooden boat Arabella secures the carlins to the shelf, preventing structural expansion during deck caulking.2:57 Each tie rod connects to a short beam to minimize spans and maintain tension.3:44 The crew counterbored the rods along the cockpit area to allow for flush trimming, while interior grab rails will eventually cover the rods and provide a ledge for the house sides.5:18 A temporary plywood cockpit mockup allows the crew to test ergonomics, including seat height and tiller clearance.20:53 The design incorporates vertical deck prisms into the cockpit sides to illuminate the engine compartment and galley, a placement chosen to reduce leakage risks compared to traditional deck-mounted prisms.22:48 The crew also plans to install a pivoting tiller mechanism to improve visibility and provide access to the aft hatch while underway.15:15 These structural components and the sill plate work together to create a rigid, watertight transition between the deck and the house.18:41
