Ce que couvre cette vidéo

Andy begins a full interior restoration of a 1970 Westwind Paceship 24 by gutting the cabin to address widespread rot in the bulkheads and sole.0:30 Because the boat features a one-piece molded fiberglass interior liner installed before the deck was attached, removing the components requires a reverse-engineered, jigsaw-style demolition rather than separating the deck from the hull.0:56 The plan involves cutting out the forward center sections to access the bulkheads, followed by the removal of the port and starboard quarter berths, and finally the rotten cabin sole.7:18 During the initial demolition, Andy discovers mold throughout inaccessible nooks and crannies and contamination from a former head installation in the V-berth.2:26 After removing the interior, he intends to power wash and bleach the hull interior to sanitize the structure.3:06 A visual inspection of the bilge reveals no wooden components below the waterline and confirms the presence of a solid lead ballast block weighing over 1,000 pounds.10:55
