Installation of bronze tie rods across the deck beams of the wooden boat Arabella secures the carlins to the shelf, preventing structural expansion during deck caulking.2:57 Each tie rod connects to a short beam to minimize spans and maintain tension.3:44 The crew counterbored the rods along the cockpit area to allow for flush trimming, while interior grab rails will eventually cover the rods and provide a ledge for the house sides.5:18 A temporary plywood cockpit mockup allows the crew to test ergonomics, including seat height and tiller clearance.20:53 The design incorporates vertical deck prisms into the cockpit sides to illuminate the engine compartment and galley, a placement chosen to reduce leakage risks compared to traditional deck-mounted prisms.22:48 The crew also plans to install a pivoting tiller mechanism to improve visibility and provide access to the aft hatch while underway.15:15 These structural components and the sill plate work together to create a rigid, watertight transition between the deck and the house.18:41
