Cosa tratta questo video

The crew of a Prout Ltd. Snowgoose 37 Elite hauls out at Ross Haven Marine in Townsville to remove old antifouling paint in preparation for a DIY Coppercoat application.▶ 0:32 Because Coppercoat requires a clean surface of gel coat or barrier coat to adhere, the team spends six days manually scraping and sanding the entire hull.▶ 2:59 The process proves physically exhausting and leads to severe skin irritation and rashes from contact with antifouling dust.▶ 0:11 To mitigate exposure to both the dust and local sandflies, the crew adopts protective boiler suits and paper suits.▶ 9:58 During the haul-out, they also replace a rotten wooden transducer block with a new composite material provided by the yard manager and install a new depth sounder transducer.▶ 11:41 The rudders remain unstripped due to the time and cost of removal, leaving them with old antifouling.▶ 16:52 The project concludes after six days of labor, with the hull prepped for the final coating application.▶ 16:25
