Qué cubre este vídeo

Javi fabricates a custom two-meter wooden gangway to improve boarding access while docked at Mandraki harbor in Rhodes.Watch The harbor experiences significant surge, requiring the boat to be moored further from the quay.0:01 To construct the gangway, Javi selects a sturdy wooden plank, applies varnish, and adds an anti-slip coating.Watch He repurposes the mounting bracket from the boat's wind vane self-steering system to serve as a hinge for the gangway.0:31 By drilling holes and installing eyebolts, he creates a mechanism that allows the gangway to pivot and adjust to the boat's movement against the dock.1:17 The design includes specific cutouts to ensure the assembly clears the existing wind vane support structure when lowered.1:34 Once installed, the gangway allows for stable, hands-free boarding while the vessel remains safely separated from the quay by multiple mooring lines and snubbers.6:51
