To align a new engine, the owner uses the old propeller shaft and a new coupling provided by Mokour to establish the correct axis.0:42 After mounting the engine on temporary wooden blocks, the owner adjusts the angle until the coupling slides onto the shaft by hand and the shaft rotates freely.4:36 Final alignment will be performed by a professional once the engine is permanently mounted on custom-fabricated metal shims.5:24
Separately, the owner fabricates a removable solar panel arch using 26/34mm (one-inch) steel tubing and a hydraulic pipe bender.6:20 The arch design features articulated bolt-and-nut mounts at the transom to accommodate the hull's angle, allowing for adjustable positioning.10:40 The owner welds the mounting plates to the tubes using an arc welder, incorporating a hole in the starboard plate for electrical cable routing.11:36 The structure is bolted directly to the hull, with silicone sealant applied to the base plates for waterproofing.17:41 The project requires working from narrow wooden platforms over the water in 38-degree Celsius heat.Watch
