Ce que couvre cette vidéo
Replacing Yanmar engine mounts on a custom aluminum sailboat requires careful planning to avoid lifting the engine with jacks or hoists.11:10 By decoupling the prop shaft and removing mounts one at a time, the engine can be tilted slightly to provide clearance for bracket removal.11:17 Before installation, ensure the correct rubber density is used for each side; in this case, 200-density mounts were installed on the port side and 150-density on the starboard side.16:21 Using a feeler gauge at the shaft coupling during reinstallation ensures proper alignment.15:21 Applying anti-seize compounds like LanoCote or Tef-Gel to bolts prevents corrosion on dissimilar metals.16:08 Additionally, the crew replaced a heavy, cumbersome hard dinghy with a lighter inflatable model after testing both with a 9.8-hp Tohatsu outboard.6:10 The hard dinghy proved too difficult to maneuver on and off the deck without assistance, whereas the inflatable offered easier handling for off-grid living.7:39
