Ce que couvre cette vidéo

The refit of a Cape George Cutter 36 continues with interior cabinetry work and the installation of a custom thrust bearing bulkhead.0:38 To replace original wicker inserts, the crew fabricates new cabinet doors using a router table to cut grooves for Alaska yellow cedar panels.4:29 Simultaneously, the team installs a half-inch marine-grade aluminum bulkhead designed to transfer propeller thrust directly to the hull.14:24 This bulkhead ensures axial alignment between the propeller shaft and the cutlass bearing, while an AquaDrive constant velocity joint isolates the engine from vibration.14:48 Because the aluminum bulkhead contacts stainless steel hardware, the crew fabricates custom plastic washers to prevent galvanic corrosion.18:55 A custom-built puller facilitates the removal of the shaft coupling, which previously required brute force.17:30 The bulkhead is positioned using a caliper to ensure perpendicularity before final bonding with epoxy and fiberglass reinforcement.20:04 The project remains in a temporary shed, with the crew monitoring yard requirements for its removal.11:07
