Cosa tratta questo video

The crew of the 36-ft boat Uma reinforces the V-berth hull by installing two-centimeter-thick fiberglass mini-ribs in a cross pattern to eliminate structural flexing during passages.1:40 After grinding the hull surface, they bond the ribs with fiberglass and epoxy to stiffen the laminate before applying insulation.2:16 The team also decides to mount the chain plates on the interior of the hull rather than the exterior, opting to reinforce the bulkhead areas with six layers of 400-gram biaxial fiberglass on each side.9:00 Before sealing the hull with insulation, the crew hand-writes the names of over 1,300 Patreon supporters directly onto the interior fiberglass surfaces, creating a permanent, hidden record of their contributors.12:36 They plan to photograph the names for documentation before covering them with insulation.21:11 Adding structural ribs and reinforcing chain plate bulkheads provides the necessary stiffness to prevent hull deformation in heavy seas.
