Installing a wide, heavy-duty galley drawer in a foam-core boat requires reinforcing the mounting points to ensure screw-holding strength. To support a wide drawer under the galley and settee, the installation uses 265-pound capacity stainless steel drawer slides.0:29 Because the foam core lacks the density to hold screws, the process involves routing out sections of the foam, inserting plywood pads, and bonding them in place with epoxy mixed with colloidal silica and cotton flock.1:40 These pads are then fiberglassed over to create a solid substrate for the drawer tracks.6:56 When drawer boxes are not perfectly parallel, they may bind; in such cases, rebuilding the boxes from plywood is often more efficient than attempting to adjust the tracks.10:09 The project concludes with the announcement of the new Max Cruise 55 sailing catamaran, which joins the 44-foot and 48-foot models in three configurations: standard, eco-hybrid with electric propulsion, and a performance-oriented sport version featuring a carbon fiber rotating mast and dagger boards.12:17
