Ce que couvre cette vidéo

The host of the 1987 Warrior 38 *Athena* fabricates a temporary cockpit table using scrap wood, a piano hinge, and thickened West Systems 105 epoxy with 406 filler.2:00 To mount the hinge to the pedestal without permanent damage, he secures a sacrificial Sapele block with Sikaflex and screws.4:35 He addresses the lack of a permanent leg by rigging a temporary folding support.5:00 Additional interior projects include installing Sapele trim in the aft cabin and forward cabin, which requires clearing storage areas beneath the v-berth and aft bunk.7:11 While accessing the forward cabin chain plate, he reverses three of the four securing bolts to accommodate the new trim.10:24 He also installs a ventilation vent for the Isotherm freezer to improve compressor airflow, noting that the unit’s poor insulation causes persistent condensation and wood warping.13:19 The host plans to replace these temporary solutions with permanent upgrades once the vessel reaches the United States.3:40
