Cosa tratta questo video
Jorman modifies a dinghy in Porto Santo, Madeira, by shortening its overall length to ensure it fits on the deck of his sailboat.0:41 He cuts the hull in half to remove a rotted stern and fabricates a new transom using marine plywood, which he seals and reinforces with multiple layers of fiberglass cloth and roving.2:42 To avoid future rot, he replaces traditional wooden structural elements with synthetic materials, including pool noodles used as molds for the hull sides, bonded with T-Rex adhesive.4:22 He fills gaps with a custom mixture of polyester resin and microfibers.4:59 Yendy assists by sanding the interior surfaces to a smooth finish before the application of Hempel Light Primer.5:28 The project includes the installation of a new drain and custom wooden oar locks.5:02 Jorman notes that the lack of local marine supply infrastructure in Porto Santo forces him to source all materials from Funchal or the mainland, significantly increasing project costs and labor time.1:43 The dinghy successfully passed initial water trials under motor and oar power.6:15
