Restoration work on a Wharram Pahi 42 catamaran focuses on hull preparation and plumbing installation ahead of a scheduled launch. The project involves sanding the hull to key the existing hard antifouling and filling surface pits with fairing compound to address erosion caused by 15 years of sitting in a shallow, mud-bottomed anchorage.20:40 The hull requires two coats of two-component epoxy primer to seal areas worn down to bare fiberglass before applying the final topcoat.25:47 Additional tasks include fabricating engine sleds and installing a new galley sink system, which incorporates a foot-operated freshwater pump, flexible bilge-mounted water tank, and associated plumbing fittings.17:43 The host manages these repairs alongside temporary fixes to a water-damaged dinghy transom using Sikaflex and screws.5:23 Assistance from volunteers accelerates the sanding process, which requires microfiber cleaning to remove paint dust before painting.19:48
