Ce que couvre cette vidéo

The crew of Nervous- Starting Over! begins a refit project to stop leaks in two of the boat's six aluminum-framed windows and several hatches.1:00 The process involves removing the frames, stripping away decades of degraded butyl tape and silicone, and disassembling the handcrafted aluminum corner brackets.2:33 Because stainless steel screws have seized in the aluminum frames due to galvanic corrosion, the crew must drill out the damaged fasteners and fabricate replacements.2:47 The repair plan requires cleaning all components, countersinking the screws to ensure they sit flush against the glass and fiberglass, and applying new butyl tape to create separate interior and exterior seals.5:02 While addressing the windows, the crew also prepares to replace a hollow, thin backing plate on the babystay with a custom assembly designed by an architect and fabricated by Garhauer.0:43 Proper sealing of window frames prevents water intrusion into the stateroom and navigation station.6:02
