Qué cubre este vídeo
Regina, a steel-hulled sailboat, undergoes extensive maintenance at the Portosanto shipyard to address hull oxidation, engine access, and exhaust system repairs.3:43 To replace the propeller shaft, the owner removes the transmission and shifts the engine forward on its mounts, a process requiring three people to maneuver the weight.5:18 A professional welder replaces a corroded section of the steel plating near the engine exhaust and installs new studs for additional sacrificial anodes on the stern.8:37 The owner strips away years of accumulated filler from the bow to expose the steel, treats the underlying oxidation with a rust converter, and applies a maroon-colored paint to the area to mask future impact damage from anchors and mooring lines.10:09 The underwater hull is sanded and coated with antifouling paint, while the propeller receives a specialized Velox coating.16:12 The owner also inspects a previously repaired transmission pinion, confirming the epoxy-based reconstruction remains structurally sound.11:44
