Ce que couvre cette vidéo
Sven Yrvind installs a custom wave deflector on his small ocean-crossing boat to redirect breaking waves away from the cockpit.▶ 0:08 The concave structure utilizes a catapult effect to push water back out to sea, providing protection for the stern area located only 30 centimeters from the water line.▶ 1:07 Yrvind draws on his 1975 experience building trimarans with Dick Newick to refine the design.▶ 2:18 Additionally, he fabricates custom 10-centimeter Tufnol cleats to secure hatch gaskets.▶ 5:30 He rejects standard cam or clamp cleats, noting that their tendency to slip during engagement creates gaps between the hatch and the gasket.▶ 4:56 By building custom cleats with a base plate, he ensures a precise, tight fit for the hatch seal.▶ 5:53 He plans to integrate these cleats with over-center latches to complete the deck hardware configuration.▶ 4:13
