The crew of the 38-ft sailboat Squib performs two major refit tasks: installing a custom galley drawer unit and applying KiwiGrip non-skid coating to the deck.1:47 To prepare the deck, the crew removes old epoxy from a wooden stern rail using a triangular sander and 400-grit sandpaper, then masks off the safety rails and perimeter edges.1:06 They apply the KiwiGrip using a notched trowel for initial distribution, followed by a roller to achieve a uniform, textured finish.16:28
Simultaneously, the crew installs a new galley drawer cabinet.10:35 The installation requires twelve iterative adjustments, including trimming the cabinet’s rear panels and rounding off corners to clear internal structural obstructions and ensure a level fit.8:22 After multiple test-fittings, the drawers are inserted to verify alignment and depth.11:33 The project concludes with the successful application of the non-skid coating and the final seating of the galley cabinetry. Iterative trimming and repeated test-fitting are essential when installing custom cabinetry into the irregular, non-square spaces of a boat’s interior.
