Ce que couvre cette vidéo
Ben and MP prepare wooden boat Yabá to depart a Brazilian shipyard after a relaunch, completing a backlog of jobs before heading north along the Brazilian coast.0:04 The ash deck is sanded with a grinder over two days, then receives three coats of varnish — the first coat thinned for penetration, the final coat mixed with quartz for anti-skid.1:19 A cardan shaft coupling, which had excessive play causing noise under motor, is removed, welded into a fixed length to prevent the prop shaft from extending in reverse and striking the rudder, then reinstalled.6:49 Interior engine-room floor planks, previously cut to allow prop-shaft seal replacement, are fitted with wooden retaining borders to stop them shifting onto the spinning shaft.19:28 80 meters of 12 mm anchor chain returns from galvanizing, is laid out, marked at 10-meter intervals with epoxy primer, and rigged through the windlass using a halyard and deck pulley.36:04 A self-tacking jib boom is shaped, sanded, and varnished.6:35 River current hitting the hull broadside discolors fresh paint.31:11 Departure is delayed by the chain's late delivery but ultimately achieved by episode's end.31:17
