Qué cubre este vídeo

Sven Yrvind demonstrates the process of heeling his boat, Hexlex, to 90 degrees to improve access for hull finishing and fiberglass work.▶ 5:33 He secures the vessel using multiple anchor points and rests the keel on a reinforced half-inch plywood box to maintain stability while the boat lies on its side.▶ 6:06 Before shifting the hull, Yrvind details three knots used to manage the rigging and securing lines: the Carrick bend, the sheet bend, and the Zeppelin bend.▶ 1:37 He identifies the Zeppelin bend as the most secure option for high-tension applications where the knot must remain reliable under shaking or movement.▶ 3:15 Yrvind emphasizes the importance of allowing epoxy to cure for at least 24 hours before applying structural forces.▶ 1:03 With the boat positioned at a 90-degree angle, he prepares to smooth the hull surfaces and apply additional glass fiber for structural reinforcement.▶ 6:57
