Qué cubre este vídeo

Chris replaces the worn blue leather on the steering wheel of Vanishing Point, a Beneteau 57, using a kit from PopeLeathers.com.▶ 0:02 The kit arrives pre-cut with waxed string, double-sided tape, and stitching instructions.▶ 1:54 The process starts with removing the old leather, polishing the wheel rim, then applying double-sided tape to hold the new leather in position during stitching.▶ 2:22 The full job takes roughly two days.▶ 3:18 Chris had no prior leather-working experience and learned the technique from YouTube tutorials before starting.▶ 3:07 One hard-learned caution: wear gloves throughout — the stitching process tears up bare hands, and even an old pair of sailing gloves provides adequate protection.▶ 3:43 The finished wheel is a visible cosmetic improvement over the cracked original.▶ 5:38 Chris also mentions upcoming content including offshore sailing footage and an interview with the attorney who handled the foreign-flag documentation issue when bringing Vanishing Point back from Australia.▶ 4:16
