Cosa tratta questo video
The crew prepares for final rigging by organizing aluminum and stainless steel components, including a bow beam, anchor roller, and chain plates, which require black anodizing and hand polishing.5:01 Work shifts to the galley, where white oak trim is bonded to the bridge deck cabinetry using TotalBoat Thixo flex epoxy. The project scope changes as the decision is made to relocate the Vitrifrigo freezer from the galley to a custom-built compartment beneath the settee. This relocation allows for the installation of three to four inches of insulation around the unit, significantly improving thermal efficiency for deep-freezing compared to the factory-standard insulation. The installation process involves bonding two-inch foam panels into the settee cavity, inserting the freezer, and filling the remaining gaps with two-pound density pour-in foam to create a vapor barrier and secure the unit. Remote mounting the compressor in the refrigerator compartment ensures proper ventilation.
