To prepare for a major interior refit, the crew of the 45-ft boat Uma establishes a workshop in a shipping container and verifies the vessel's level in the shipyard. They install five 36-watt LED tube lights in the container using magnetic tape for mounting.4:12 To organize tools and materials, they construct custom shelving inside the container using a track saw.10:08 Because a laser level proved difficult to read against the boat's matte black bottom paint, the crew builds a rudimentary water level using clear plastic hose and water.15:42 By comparing the water level in the hose to the boat's factory waterline, they confirm the hull sits with a slight stern-heavy trim, which they determine is acceptable for the upcoming structural work.19:37 This verification allows them to proceed with grinding the hull and laminating new ribs and stringers.20:30
