Cosa tratta questo video

Djé and Loulou reorient a cabin porthole on their catamaran, Mistertong, to improve ventilation in the sleeping quarters.1:29 The original installation opened toward the bow, which the crew found inefficient for airflow.0:23 To reverse the orientation, they carefully remove the aluminum-framed window by cutting the existing Sika sealant with a flat spatula and a screwdriver, taking care not to deform the frame.3:47 After cleaning the old sealant and prepping the surface, they reseal the porthole in the new position using fresh Sika.7:47 The crew also addresses viewer feedback regarding the use of Dyneema for lifelines, noting that while they embedded the line in resin for a clean, screw-free finish, they acknowledge the potential for UV degradation and may use sheathed Dyneema or heat-shrink tubing for future improvements.19:29 While waiting for saildrive parts to arrive in late October, the crew spends time snorkeling and fishing, catching parrotfish and sole.17:39
