Cosa tratta questo video

Andy continues the restoration of a 1970 Paceship Yachts Westwind 24 by removing deck hardware and evaluating the cabin top for fairing.0:10 He chooses epoxy over polyester resin for patching old hardware holes to expedite the sanding process.1:32 During the evaluation, he discovers a significant half-inch dip in the cabin top that requires a structural solution to prevent water pooling near the port lights.3:19

The project shifts to the interior, where Andy replaces the rotted sole with Coosa board.5:51 He selects the 20-pound density Blue Water series for its structural rigidity compared to the more flexible Nautical line.7:08 Because the boat’s bilge is only four inches deep and divided by the keel, he determines that a traditional bilge pump will not fit.8:10 He plans to install two remote-mounted pumps in the aft locker, each with a long intake hose to service the isolated port and starboard bilge sections.10:29 He seeks recommendations for remote-mount bilge pumps capable of handling long intake runs.11:28
