Ce que couvre cette vidéo

Garrett and Ruth continue the refit of their boat, *Rediviva*, while docked, focusing on pilot house construction and rig assessment. Garrett builds interior seating for the pilot house using plywood, epoxy, and fillets, designing the structure to be rugged and water-resistant for use in foul weather. He mounts the seats high to maintain visibility from a seated position while on watch. The crew also hoists the mainsail for the first time in seven months to clean off yard dust and evaluate boom clearance over the new pilot house roof. Despite initial concerns about the gaff pinching against the shrouds, the sail clears the structure sufficiently for operation. Ruth applies a new, darker finish to the bulwarks, rub rails, and cap rails to contrast with the recently painted decks. The pair balances ongoing maintenance tasks with a deliberate effort to slow their work pace before an upcoming trip.Watch
