Cosa tratta questo video
The crew of the custom aluminum catamaran, currently under construction, is installing the deck-mounted sailing hardware with a focus on consolidating all control lines to the forward cockpit. To minimize deck penetrations and potential leak points, the team is welding aluminum plates and studs directly to the hull for mounting hardware rather than drilling through-deck holes.4:07 The layout utilizes 42mm Selden tracks and cars, with Rutgerson rooftop and bottom blocks positioned to ensure clean, chafe-free line runs from the jib car to the forward cockpit winches.6:33 The design incorporates a recessed box for turning blocks, allowing for the installation of an electric winch while maintaining structural integrity.11:04 The crew plans to conduct sea trials by mid-next year, with a shakedown cruise in local waters before potentially undertaking a North Pacific loop.26:39 The vessel features full insulation to manage temperatures in both tropical and high-latitude climates, and the team is currently evaluating synthetic teak or cork-based decking materials to cover the aluminum surfaces.30:53
