Ce que couvre cette vidéo
Refitting a Cape George Cutter 36 requires building a custom refrigerator box within the cockpit locker to accommodate the vessel's layout.1:06 The construction uses pink foam panels, with four inches of insulation on the sides and six inches on the bottom to achieve an estimated R25 and R30 rating.3:02 Achieving precise angles for the three-dimensional, curved shape proves difficult, requiring multiple attempts and the use of a filleting knife for accurate foam trimming.2:29 To bond the panels, spray foam serves as a gap-filling adhesive, chosen over epoxy or SikaFlex because it provides additional insulation and avoids heat transfer.12:08 The project also involves modifying a stainless steel sink to fit the galley, which requires cutting the edge and welding a custom backsplash to accommodate the boat's waterline level.10:37 Future steps include fiberglassing the interior liner, installing an airtight gasketed lid, and preparing the interior for varnish.16:28
