Cosa tratta questo video
Archie fills seven through-hull fittings on Puffin by grinding the surrounding fiberglass, inserting thickened epoxy pucks, and layering fiberglass inside and outside the hull.0:10 He applies a sacrificial layer of two-part epoxy paint to protect the repair from UV damage before final sanding and fairing.1:13 The project also involves inspecting the propeller and shaft coupling for potential reuse.2:40 Archie attempts to remove the seized propeller from the shaft using an oscillating saw to cut the coupling, but he accidentally cuts into the shaft itself.4:50 Upon further inspection, he identifies signs of dezincification in the propeller metal, rendering the unit structurally unsound for propulsion.8:16 He decides to abandon the repair and considers installing a folding propeller during a future electric motor conversion.8:28 The propeller remains mounted on the shaft as a decorative element.8:32
