Structural repairs on an Outremer catamaran involve extensive wood rot remediation and fiberglass work on the nacelle and trampoline attachment points. The owners, Djé and Nad, identify water ingress through screw holes as the primary cause of rot, necessitating the removal of damaged wood and the application of epoxy resin and fiberglass cloth.▶ 6:35 The repair process requires working from scaffolding in challenging conditions, including high winds and sudden rain squalls that complicate lamination.▶ 35:37 To secure a storage locker door, the crew designs a custom locking mechanism using Dyneema line and epoxy inserts, avoiding metal hardware.▶ 1:36 During the project, they discover significant corrosion on 24 meters of their 60-meter secondary anchor chain, effectively reducing its usable length.▶ 11:48 The team manages logistics by sourcing materials from other cruisers and local woodworkers while balancing repair tasks with administrative duties and video production.▶ 18:20 Consistent maintenance and thorough purging of rotted sections are essential to restoring structural integrity to the vessel's forward sections and nacelle.
