Cosa tratta questo video

The refit of a Cape George Cutter 36 continues with the reconstruction of the cockpit and the finishing of the interior chart table. The crew installs a two-layer plywood cockpit deck, with the first layer bonded to structural beams and the second layer staggered for strength before glassing.4:16 To prepare for future systems, the hull is drilled for a propane locker vent, cockpit drains, and exhaust ports.8:19

Simultaneously, the interior chart table undergoes a multi-layer epoxy application.5:45 After a previous attempt resulted in surface contamination—likely silicone—the surface is degreased with acetone before applying a self-leveling tabletop epoxy.11:22 A heat gun is used during the pour to remove air bubbles and ensure a smooth finish.16:31 The crew notes that the project’s pace was significantly hampered by visa-related time constraints, which added pressure to the structural and finishing tasks.30:59 The work concludes with the application of varnish to teak trim, confirming that temperature control is critical for preventing runs on vertical surfaces.29:53
