¿Qué cubre este video?
The owners of the 10-year rebuild project *Brewpeg*, a former fishing trawler, install insulation on the interior roof to mitigate extreme heat in preparation for a planned voyage to Antarctica.19:53 The process requires clearing the aft deck and removing previously installed LED lights and clips to ensure the insulation panels sit flush against the steel structure.15:50 To prevent thermal bridging and convection, the crew fills gaps and obstructions with closed-cell spray foam.34:07 The team evaluates the feasibility of a second layer of insulation, noting that while it would improve thermal efficiency, it would significantly reduce headroom in the wheelhouse and cabin.35:47 During the project, a sudden squall with 30-to-35-knot winds forces the crew to monitor their mooring position using radar and an anchor watch while idling the main engine.38:18 The insulation work remains a priority to manage the vessel's internal temperature as the boat prepares to head north.19:53
