Crew laughs wiping boat hardtop, Bahamas behind

Cosa tratta questo video

Brett and Jade Evans apply two coats of Awlgrip High Build Primer to their custom carbon fiber hardtop while anchored in the Bahamas.2:09 The pair removes stern rails and davit hardware to prep the surface, then mixes the two-part epoxy primer using a drill mixer, observing a 15-minute induction time before application.0:47 They use a combination of large rollers and paintbrushes to cover the structure, noting that the thick, "peanut buttery" consistency of the high-build product caused smaller rollers to disintegrate during the first coat.4:11 The project aims to unify the hardtop's appearance before future fairing and final painting, allowing the crew to prioritize cruising, spearfishing, and diving over further boat work.5:32 The couple confirms the hardtop’s structural integrity after a successful ocean crossing and continues to refine their integrated dinghy davit system with input from the crew of the vessel Excelsior.24:42
