Refurbishing the interior and exterior of the sailboat Balanço involves extensive wood repair, varnishing, and hull painting in Salvador, Brazil. The project requires replacing rotted floor sections and upgrading interior woodwork, including cabinet doors and engine compartment steps.▶ 0:24 To ensure durability in high-friction areas like handrails and door frames, the crew applies epoxy before finishing with a matte polyurethane (PU) varnish.▶ 3:32 The hull preparation involves filling imperfections and cracks with filler, followed by sanding and applying a primer before the final PU paint coat.▶ 8:54 The work is complicated by the region's high humidity and frequent rain, which forces the crew to time painting and varnishing around weather windows.▶ 8:29 A premature attempt to paint the hull resulted in moisture damage from overnight dew, which dulled the finish and necessitated additional corrective work.▶ 16:40 The project also includes measuring for new canvas work to improve shade and comfort.▶ 5:52 The crew prioritizes completing multiple renovation tasks simultaneously to minimize the time the vessel remains uninhabitable.▶ 15:26
