Cosa tratta questo video
Garrett and Ruth continue the pilot house construction on their 30,000-pound gaff-rigged ketch, *Red Aviva*, while stationed at a boatyard in Mexico.▶ 3:28 Garrett cuts window openings into the pilot house walls and designs a sliding door system using nylon or G10 rollers for smooth operation.▶ 9:31 To maintain sail handling efficiency, he plans to relocate the mainsheet system to a bridle on the boom, leading the lines to a winch and cam cleat accessible from the pilot house entrance.▶ 16:41 The team also prepares the pilot house roof by scarfing two layers of plywood to achieve a fair curve, temporarily securing them with hot glue before final fiberglassing.▶ 20:03 While the pilot house will serve as a protected watch station, the owners intend to keep the tiller and engine controls accessible for outside operation to maintain close-quarters maneuverability.▶ 15:11 Separately, a machinist repairs the boat's stern housing and cutlass bearing assembly to ensure long-term reliability.▶ 0:52
