Replacing the headliner on a 44-foot catamaran involves creating templates from 5mm plywood strips, which are then used to cut final panels that account for the thickness of the vinyl covering.13:59 To ensure a precise fit, each panel is trimmed by approximately one millimeter on all sides before applying vinyl with contact adhesive.16:24 The process requires removing existing fixtures, such as air conditioning vents, and drilling new holes for cabin lighting.14:38 Materials for the project include 19 yards of vinyl, spray adhesive, and a dedicated spray gun, totaling approximately $260.12:36 During the installation, the project was delayed by a failing air compressor and the need to fabricate additional support structures for the panels.15:15 The work remains ongoing, with the forward and aft cabins still requiring full headliner installation.18:40 Before committing to the purchase of a separate hurricane-damaged catamaran project, the engines—two 2018 Yanmar 3YM30AEs—were successfully bench-tested and started using a gravity-fed fuel system.2:56
