The crew of the sailboat Plan C completes several final refit projects, including custom upholstery for the berth, vinyl lettering application, and anchor chain installation. To create custom cushions, the team cuts foam padding to size, adheres it to quarter-inch plywood panels with spray adhesive, and wraps the foam in fabric using hospital corners.▶ 0:21 They apply vinyl lettering to the boom and the stern, using a hinge-taping method to ensure proper alignment.▶ 7:41 The crew also acquires 300 feet of anchor chain from a local marine liquidator, marks the chain at 50-foot intervals with spray paint, and feeds it into the chain locker.▶ 17:53 During the installation, the windlass stalls after retrieving approximately 25 feet of chain, indicating a potential electrical wiring issue that requires further troubleshooting.▶ 19:23 Additional maintenance tasks include conditioning the helm’s leather with saddle soap and securing a man overboard flag with Gorilla Glue.▶ 11:21 The project concludes with the crew preparing to move their gear from storage to the boat.
