The crew of the wooden boat Yabá completes the final painting of the pilothouse roof and installs a new interior lighting system. After sanding the roof and filling minor imperfections with fairing compound, the team applies three layers of Alaska white polyurethane paint using a roll-and-tip technique to ensure a durable, waterproof finish.2:38 Following the painting, the crew restores and reinstalls the vessel's original wooden light boxes, integrating them with new red conduit tubing for wiring.10:14 Each light features an individual on-off switch, with a main control panel located nearby.7:52 The installation includes white ambient lighting for the pilothouse and cockpit areas, while navigation lights remain a separate, future project.6:35 Additionally, the crew installs a counterplate for the mainsheet pulley system on the pilothouse roof to distribute stress across the underlying structural beams.19:06 Integrating aesthetic projects like lighting into the broader restoration schedule provides motivation during the final stages of the boat's refit.23:05
