Hva denne videoen dekker
The crew of *Learning By Doing* refits their catamaran’s salon in Cronulla, Australia, replacing temporary garden furniture with a custom fiberglass-and-wood settee and a permanent table.1:31 To accommodate the boat's non-square interior, the owner mocks up the bench modules using plywood, then bonds them to the fiberglass floor using thickened epoxy and reinforces the joints with chopped strand mat.9:00 The new table mounts to a circular wooden base epoxied to the floor, avoiding the need to drill holes into the hull.12:35 Additionally, the crew upgrades their electrical system by replacing an aging 300-watt inverter with a 1000-watt Renogy unit to better support charging laptops and an electric outboard.8:13 The owner also resolves a cycling fridge issue by cleaning the electronic terminals with contact cleaner.6:29 The project concludes with staining the new woodwork and repurposing existing cushions, providing a functional space for dining and sleeping during offshore passages.18:36
