Cosa tratta questo video

Djé and Nad repair the windlass on their catamaran while anchored in Le Marin, Martinique, during a period of unstable weather characterized by 20- to 30-knot gusts and frequent rain squalls. The project involves creating reinforced resin inserts for the windlass mounting holes to prevent water ingress and wood rot in the deck core.16:17 After struggling to find appropriately sized stainless steel washers in local shops, the crew completes the installation, including wiring the remote control and sealing the unit with Sikaflex.10:04 The repair process requires constant tarping and untarping of the work area to protect the epoxy and fiberglass work from intermittent heavy rain.3:51 Beyond the windlass, the crew performs general boat cleaning and prepares to reinstall a stanchion using similar resin-based reinforcement techniques.15:07 Despite the challenging conditions and the need for multiple trips to shore, the windlass is successfully remounted and fully functional.13:57 Proper resin encapsulation of mounting holes and the use of oversized backing washers significantly increase the structural integrity and water resistance of deck-mounted hardware.16:34
