Arthur continues the refit of his catamaran by reinforcing the mast beam and constructing engine box mounts.1:33 Following viewer feedback, he upgrades the mounting hardware for the mast beam locating blocks, incorporating stainless steel studded bars with internal spacers to prevent compression.13:46 He uses 316-grade stainless steel for structural components, though he notes difficulty drilling the hard metal, which frequently burns out drill bits.9:44 To improve the engine box support, he fabricates brackets that will also serve as mounting points for fuel tanks and winches.9:20 He consults with co-designer Hanneke Boon regarding mast rake and sail shape, which will dictate the final positioning of the mast step.8:18 The project remains in the fabrication phase, with ongoing work focused on engine sled alignment and trampoline attachment points. Proper lubrication and slower drilling speeds are necessary when working with stainless steel to preserve cutting edges.12:20
