Cosa tratta questo video
Steve Goodwin extensively refitted *Panope*, a 34-foot Tom Colvin-designed steel sailboat, over 14 years to optimize the vessel for Pacific Northwest coastal cruising and gunkholing.0:05 The project involved converting the original gaff schooner rig to a gaff sloop to lower the center of gravity, reduce deck clutter, and eliminate the mainmast from the saloon.13:32 Key structural modifications included installing a custom pilot house, replacing the 15-horsepower engine with a 40-horsepower unit, and extending the boom.2:14 Goodwin fabricated numerous custom components, including a pivoting dinghy davit, a metal foredeck hatch, and a steering system featuring chains and sprockets.5:58 He also redesigned the interior layout with inboard-facing benches and a pivoting L-shaped table.8:35 The refit included adding beaching legs for drying out and a light-duty autopilot for motoring.10:25 The vessel now performs best on a reach in 15 knots of wind and maintains a balanced helm in winds up to 40 knots under a 75-square-foot storm jib.12:16
