The owners of a catamaran perform structural reinforcements on the vessel’s deck hardware, specifically focusing on the stanchion bases and chainplate backing plates.14:48 To address potential water intrusion and structural weakness, the crew fabricates custom wooden backing plates to distribute loads more effectively.15:45 They use epoxy to bond these plates to the interior hull structure, ensuring a robust connection for the stanchions and chainplates.13:49 During the installation, the owner drills pilot holes from the interior to the exterior to ensure precise alignment and minimize splintering of the wood.20:11 The project involves removing interior trim to access the mounting points and applying epoxy-based fasteners to secure the hardware.13:09 The owner also considers adding additional fiberglass or polyester layers to further protect the wood from moisture.17:05 These modifications aim to improve the structural integrity of the deck fittings compared to the original factory installation, which relied on smaller screws.23:02 The work is conducted while the boat is at anchor in the south of Martinique.5:17
