Ce que couvre cette vidéo
Oliver, preparing the vessel With Phoenix | Oliver for a passage from Oregon to Hawaii, undertakes a deck repair to accommodate a new windlass. The mounting hole for the replacement windlass differs in size from the existing deck cutout, requiring a fiberglass and epoxy patch. Using a bandsaw, he cuts an oak plug to fit the opening, then grinds the surrounding deck area to prepare the surface for bonding. He secures the plug from below using a makeshift support system of painter's tape and a wooden plank, then fills the gaps with thickened epoxy from the topside. The process involves working in confined, difficult-to-access spaces within the boat's interior. The project remains ongoing as the epoxy cures.
