Ce que couvre cette vidéo

Aledino and Maya continue the refit of their Cape George Cutter 36 by installing a structural aluminum thrust bulkhead in the engine room to support an AquaDrive constant velocity joint.0:29 To prevent galvanic corrosion between the aluminum plate and the hull, they isolate the assembly using plastic washers and Tefgel.3:01 Aledino secures the bulkhead with epoxy cartridges for initial positioning, then reinforces the structure with multiple layers of 1708 fiberglass and unidirectional cloth, applying over 50 ounces of glass in total.9:49 He abrades the aluminum surface immediately before bonding to ensure a clean interface, as oxidation forms quickly.5:00 Elsewhere on the vessel, the crew varnishes overhead beams with three coats of PP Extra and begins disassembling a leaking butterfly hatch for resealing.10:10 They also install aesthetic port frames on the cabin top using Sikaflex and primer, opting to glue the frames rather than screw them into the fiberglass cabin structure.16:43
