Hva denne videoen dekker
Around day 77–78 of a haul-out refit, Djé and Nad complete three significant tasks on their Outremer catamaran at a boatyard in Carriacou: closing the bow (étrave) repair, raising the solar panel arch, and reinstalling the davit arch (bossoir).▶ 8:10 The bow repair involves gluing and screwing a plywood board over the hull opening, then laying fiberglass cloth with peel ply over it; full fairing and mastic work remain for the following day.▶ 15:45 The solar panel arch frame is raised 60 cm using salvaged aluminum tube welded by a local fabricator named Marco, then rigged up with halyards and a topping lift before dropping into place without adjustment — seven rivets per side.▶ 2:24 Passport extensions are handled at Hillsborough, Carriacou, at the immigration and treasury buildings: the process takes under an hour and costs a fee paid at a separate government cashier, granting a two-month extension to July 11, valid also for Grenada.▶ 11:21 A marina access dispute — a broken fence blocking boat transport — remains unresolved after roughly a month, with the responsible party unreachable.▶ 7:30 Remaining work includes sealing other hull penetrations, reinforcing two nacelle beams, modifying both transoms, repairing rotten wood on the sterns, and fixing a port-side engine compartment bulkhead.▶ 41:38
