Qué cubre este vídeo
The owners of a Worm Pahi 42 catamaran, anchored near Poros, Greece, extend their cockpit hardtop by one meter to increase shade.0:06 The project involves creating a foam-core structure reinforced with biaxial fiberglass and epoxy resin.5:47 After transferring the existing roof’s curvature to wooden templates, the crew cuts five foam segments and bonds them to the supports.0:53 Laminating occurs during calm night hours to avoid wind interference and high daytime temperatures.8:11 The structure is finished with 2K PU white paint, and a 30x30 cm acrylic window is installed to allow visibility of the mainsail from the helm.10:22 Final installation requires mounting the extension to the existing hardtop using bolted aluminum tabs and Sikaflex, with additional support provided by four stainless steel struts riveted to the boat's existing stainless columns.11:44 A sealed joint prevents water runoff between the old and new sections.15:13 The project provides significant additional shade and improved visibility for sail trimming.13:49
