Cosa tratta questo video

The owner of the 30-year-old catamaran Squib installs two internal bulkheads in the starboard hull to create a dedicated compartment for a holding tank and a cooling box.0:39 Because the hull lacks right angles and flat surfaces, the project requires creating custom templates using cardboard and thin wooden strips to match the curved interior geometry.8:24 The owner uses the edge of an existing cabin door as a reference point for vertical alignment, assuming it remains square to the hull floor.14:01 After cutting the templates, the owner transfers the shapes onto 8mm marine-grade plywood.18:19 To ensure the bulkheads remain parallel during the installation process, the owner constructs temporary wooden spacers and reference jigs.10:01 The final assembly involves bonding the plywood panels to the hull using thickened epoxy, followed by fiberglass tabbing.11:01 The owner notes that small gaps between the panels and the hull are acceptable, as they can be filled with epoxy fillets.6:11 Precise measurement and the use of consistent reference points are essential when installing structural components in a non-linear, curved boat interior.
