A 22-foot sailboat undergoes structural repairs to its deck, windows, and keel.3:02 The owner patches hull holes using fiberglass epoxy resin and filler, while re-riveting the exterior bumper trim to prevent water ingress.3:46 To address deck rigidity, the owner removes the windows, applies new silicone sealant, and installs temporary plywood backing where the original balsa core has deteriorated.4:12 Future plans include replacing the balsa core and applying additional layers of fiberglass mat to reinforce the deck and support the mast rigging.6:08 The keel repair involves addressing a gap between the keel and hull by applying 3M 5200 marine-grade sealant.9:00 The owner jacks the boat to separate the keel from the hull, cleans the mating surface, and tightens the keel bolts from the interior to compress the sealant.13:38 Makeshift internal supports provide stability during the process, and the boat is eventually lowered to rest its weight on the keel to ensure a proper seal.13:01
