Qué cubre este vídeo

Johan and Malin address technical questions regarding the construction of their custom sailboat, currently budgeted at $300,000.3:04 The hull, a cedar-core sandwich design, features fiberglass laminates on both the interior and exterior to ensure stiffness and moisture protection.4:56 Johan explains that the cedar core remains stable because it was encapsulated at an 8% humidity level, preventing future movement or off-gassing.15:10 The team opted against vacuum infusion for the hull lamination due to the high infrastructure costs and the risks associated with a one-off build.9:54 Future construction steps include installing the keel grid, followed by bulkheads and the interior, with plans to use a vacuum table to produce PET foam sandwich panels for the bulkheads.11:23 Regarding chain plates, Johan is currently favoring through-bolted stainless steel over carbon fiber for ease of installation, provided he creates epoxy tunnels to protect the wood core from moisture.7:01 The name Rán originates from Norse mythology, representing a sea goddess, and was chosen for its brevity and ease of pronunciation over VHF radio.15:52
