Ce que couvre cette vidéo
Edgar and Sâmia fabricate custom companionway hatch covers for their boat after determining that off-the-shelf components do not fit the vessel's dimensions.13:57 Because the original mold was too narrow, the crew cuts the fiberglass hatch sections in half to widen them, creating a custom extension to achieve the necessary width.2:37 They use a mixture of talc and fiberglass resin to fillet the joints and reinforce the structure, aiming to create a sliding, two-piece hatch system that allows for a larger opening.11:56 The design incorporates a rubber gasket seal between the overlapping sections to prevent water ingress, a recurring issue with their previous, self-designed hatch.10:44 While the structural reinforcement and fiberglass lamination continue, the team prepares to install a new tunnel component and finalize the motor positioning, including the installation of a constant-velocity joint.17:15 The project remains a learning process due to the lack of detailed construction plans for the vessel.14:28
