Sven Yrvind tests a 1:5 scale model of his boat to verify self-righting capabilities and interior ergonomics. The model features buoyancy chambers in the bow and stern, with the center of gravity positioned 10 centimeters above the waterline.0:43 During basin testing, the model consistently self-rights from an inverted position.0:12 The interior design incorporates a 1.8-meter-long bunk and a 1-meter-long eating area, with a 90-centimeter width to accommodate a person 151 centimeters tall.6:15 To improve comfort in cold Southern Ocean conditions, the cabin layout includes enlarged 60-to-70-centimeter openings, providing more space for movement while wearing heavy clothing.4:00 The design also integrates two pipes for mast and rudder access.7:09 Yrvind notes that while the model reacts quickly to capsizing, the full-scale vessel will move more slowly due to the physics of pendulum motion.3:01
