Jon, the owner of the 46-foot sailboat *Antidote*, is rebuilding the vessel's bulwarks by filling internal cavities with Carbon Core pourable transom compound.2:01 To prepare for the pour, he is sealing gaps in the fiberglass structure using polyester resin thickened with silica and patching holes with chop strand.4:36 He uses a rotary tool to grind away old plywood and custom 3D-printed vacuum adapters to clean debris from the narrow bulwark channels.5:04 The project requires the ambient temperature to remain above 60 degrees Fahrenheit for a 48-hour cure time.2:42 Jon plans to reinstall the original bronze hawse cleats by greasing them to prevent the compound from bonding to the metal, allowing for a snug, custom-fit installation.20:48 The restoration is currently paused for an urgent home sewer line repair.14:09 Additionally, Jon announces his attendance at the Annapolis Sailboat Show on October 17th to meet with other sailing content creators.11:02
