Ce que couvre cette vidéo
Mads prepares for a full electrical system refit aboard his boat, Athena, by stripping out obsolete electronics and wiring from the aft cabin and navigation station.0:19 He removes an old SSB radio, a VHF unit, and various disconnected cables, marking remaining wires to simplify the future installation of new 12V and 230V systems.4:07 To plan the layout for a new DC distribution panel, a 24-inch computer monitor, and AC breakers, he uses cardboard templates to test the fit of Blue Sea 360 and traditional metal panels near the chart table.3:01 Additionally, he removes moldy headliners and vinyl foam from the hull to inspect the structure.10:10 Moisture readings taken over 17 weeks show a general downward trend in hull dampness, though one specific area shows a recurring spike that suggests potential standing water.11:47 The project confirms that removing abandoned, non-functional wiring is a necessary first step before installing modern electrical components.
