Qué cubre este vídeo
The owners of the catamaran *Mistertong* are performing structural repairs on the vessel’s deck and roof, which involve cutting into the deck to replace rotted wood and reinforce the structure.Watch The crew removes damaged sections, installs new red wood rafters, and applies epoxy resin mixed with colloidal silica and fiberglass to create structural joints. They plan to finish the fiberglass work before closing the deck sections to protect the interior from potential tropical weather.
Beyond the primary deck repairs, the crew removes old lifelines and addresses minor soft spots in the rear skirt. Maintenance tasks include repairing a cracked plastic filter bowl on the watermaker’s intake and cleaning the cooling filter for the generator. The team also patches the dinghy’s double bottom using a rubber-like sealant. The project requires sourcing additional plywood and wood for the final structural closures. The crew aims to complete the deck sealing before upcoming weather systems arrive.
Structural integrity is maintained by replacing rotted wood with new rafters and reinforcing the deck with fiberglass and epoxy before closing the hull.
