Ce que couvre cette vidéo
Sven Yrvind secures the cotter pins on his high-latitude boat’s storage compartment hatches by applying a drop of epoxy to the knots.▶ 3:42 The epoxy prevents the knots from vibrating loose or coming undone during transit.▶ 4:05 He uses a pipe cleaner to apply the adhesive precisely to the small hardware.▶ 4:55 This method mimics the effect of ice buildup on deck, which he notes makes hatches difficult to open in winter conditions.▶ 4:42 Beyond this modification, he installs electrical protection components, including rubber covers for incoming power connections, and verifies the functionality of a thermometer and internal lighting system.▶ 1:03 He also mentions the progress of his boat build and discusses his recent book, which features 70 illustrations by Pierre Hervé.▶ 1:49
