Damien constructs custom fender covers to prevent plastic degradation and hull staining caused by sun exposure and friction.Watch He rejects using old t-shirts, which degrade quickly and lack aesthetic appeal, in favor of soft, colorfast fabric purchased in Guatemala.0:01 For a fender measuring 60 cm in length and 70 cm in circumference, he cuts a fabric panel of 74 cm by 66 cm to allow for seams and hems.1:40 He threads the securing line through the top and bottom hems before sewing the main seam to ensure proper fit.2:37 Using pins to adjust the tension on the fender, he performs multiple passes with heavy-duty sail thread to reinforce the seam.3:24 He trims excess material at the corners to improve the closure and fit.4:54 The process takes approximately 90 minutes when sewing by hand, though a sewing machine would reduce the time to 10–15 minutes.0:56
