Cosa tratta questo video
The crew of the 45-foot sailboat Plan C removes a seized, corroded Maxwell 12-volt windlass at Riverside Marina in Florida to address water intrusion in the foredeck.▶ 1:07 After failing to remove the clutch cone with PB Blaster and pry bars, the team successfully extracts the component using a slide hammer.▶ 16:59 Initial concerns regarding rot in the deck core prove unfounded, as the area surrounding the windlass mount is reinforced with epoxy resin rather than water-damaged wood.▶ 18:11 The crew decides to clean and repaint the existing windlass motor and electrical connections in place rather than fully disassembling the unit.▶ 18:27 To manage high temperatures during the project, the team installs shade cloth over the deck and uses box fans powered by an extension cord after the boat's 12-volt inverter fails to provide power.▶ 4:47
