Robin Davie, a veteran of three BOC Challenge races, is preparing a Rustler 36 for the 2022 Golden Globe Race.0:47 To enhance structural integrity and safety for Southern Ocean conditions, Davie has modified the production boat by installing multiple watertight bulkheads, including a collision bulkhead at the stem and a sealed engine compartment.12:15 He has also reinforced chain plate attachments by welding plates to the deck to prevent leaks and increase structural rigidity.8:46 A notable cockpit modification, granted by special exemption, involves a raised side deck that allows for improved winch access to accommodate the sailor's back issues.5:47 The boat features a deck-stepped rig sourced from a previous entrant and a Monitor wind vane self-steering system.9:30 Davie emphasizes that thorough preparation and testing are critical to avoiding the mechanical failures he experienced during his previous BOC campaigns, where rushed timelines led to rudder and electrical issues.23:24
