Andy completes the heavy fiberglass grinding phase of a boat interior restoration, transitioning from structural demolition to rebuilding.8:18 To prepare the hull for new bulkheads and flooring, he removes residual fiberglass dust by power washing the interior, having first drilled drainage holes in the hull to prevent water accumulation.10:12 He addresses surface defects on Kusa panels using Total Boat structural repair putty, applying it wet-on-wet with polyester resin and 1708 fiberglass cloth.2:35 To restore crusty, resin-caked fin rollers, he burns off the cured resin with a torch, then cleans the remaining residue with acetone and a wire brush.3:22 Future project steps include glassing over the temporary drainage holes, leveling the keel, and installing bulkheads that support the rigging stays.14:24 Once the bulkheads are set, the layout for the V-berth electronics, including Victron components and EPIC lithium-ion batteries, will follow.14:52
