Qué cubre este vídeo

The crew of Uma demolishes their existing galley to prepare for a complete interior redesign.Watch They remove Corian countertops, a custom corner-access storage unit dubbed the "Hefty Susan," and a Dometic condenser-based refrigeration system.0:42 The removal process reveals that the original bulkheads were only lightly tabbed to the hull with minimal fiberglass, providing no structural support and contributing to interior squeaking.14:35 The crew plans to replace these with properly tabbed bulkheads to increase hull stiffness.15:38 They also identify flaws in their previous galley layout, specifically noting that a fruit hammock proved impractical for a moving boat, as it bruised produce and prevented cleaning.2:33 The team intends to install a more energy-efficient drawer-style refrigerator in the new configuration.13:28 This demolition phase serves as a diagnostic step, highlighting the difference between furniture-supporting bulkheads and structural hull reinforcement.17:00
