Cosa tratta questo video
Construction of a deck rim and mast collar for a custom boat involves fabricating a watertight seal using salvaged 1940s-era Western red cedar.7:51 The builders select this wood for its rot resistance and tight grain, which helps manage moisture trapped beneath the canvas mast boot.8:28 After tracing the mast opening directly onto the deck, the crew fastens the rim and prepares a series of wooden wedges to secure the mast and adjust its rake.1:56 The project also includes sealing an exhaust port through the transom using butyl tape and a threaded fitting, which is then coated with black Rust-Oleum oil-based paint to prevent water ingress.18:05 Final preparations for stepping the mast include installing shackles and lines to facilitate rigging once the spar is vertical.13:19 The crew completes these tasks while awaiting a scheduled yard lift to finalize the mast installation.13:50
