The refit of the vessel *Squib* focuses on installing a custom galley drawer unit beneath the stove and preparing the hull for new through-hull fittings. To install the drawer, the owner sands down excess paint and wood along the drawer’s runners to ensure a smooth fit, opting for simple wooden slides over ball-bearing rails to prevent corrosion.8:57 After achieving a fit, the unit is secured with screws and sealed with epoxy fillets to prevent debris from falling behind the cabinetry.14:30 The drawer unit sits slightly higher than the adjacent refrigerator, a misalignment accepted to avoid rebuilding the structure.14:54 Separately, the crew addresses through-hull fittings removed in 2022.2:26 The owner grinds away old sealant and filler from the hull penetrations, using a Dremel tool to clean the edges and preparing the surfaces for new fittings.5:09 The work includes filling surface nicks and cracks in the laminate with epoxy filler.6:41 The project concludes with the organization of various hardware and fasteners salvaged from previous refit stages.6:56
