Cosa tratta questo video

Frankie and Pat discover 15 to 20 centimeters of standing water in the aft storage area of their boat after heavy rain.1:05 The flooding occurred because the yard removed the seacocks two months ago without replacing them, leaving the hull openings exposed.0:38 The water damaged stored gear, including sails, cables, and a portable freezer.2:21 During a separate inspection of ongoing structural repairs, the couple examines a stringer that the repair company cut to assess damage.4:17 They observe that the original construction relied on an adhesive layer between the frame and the hull rather than a direct bond, which compromised structural stability.7:30 The repair plan involves sanding the area and laminating the stringers directly to the hull using GFK fabric and epoxy to ensure a stronger, integrated bond.10:14 The yard has completed the sanding phase and intends to begin the epoxy lamination process the following week.8:20
