Sven Yrvind applies six coats of Coppercoat to the hull of his custom-built, shallow-draft boat designed for high-latitude sailing.▶ 4:45 The vessel, which weighed 506 kilograms in November, is currently being prepared for a Southern Ocean voyage with an estimated displacement of 1,000 kilograms.▶ 1:31 Yrvind uses a laser level to establish the waterline while the boat is inverted.▶ 0:05 He performs the application process over a single day, beginning the first coat at 10:00 and finishing the final coat at 22:20.▶ 5:46 Between each application, he allows for drying time and consumes ice cream.▶ 5:50 The daggerboard also receives the protective coating.▶ 4:43 Yrvind expects the Coppercoat application to provide hull protection for at least 10 to 20 years, potentially lasting up to 100 years.▶ 4:59
