Man oversees beam installation on catamaran hull
O que este vídeo aborda
The owners of an Outremer catamaran are in the process of reinstalling the forward crossbeam after completing structural repairs.28:31 The project involves precise alignment, as the beam must be positioned against the hull’s forward bulkhead without the previous clearance gaps.5:05 To ensure structural integrity, the owner drills new holes and creates epoxy inserts in the fiberglass to provide a solid mounting surface, avoiding the structural weaknesses present under the previous owner's configuration.2:24
The installation process requires a dry-fit to mark hole locations, followed by a final bonding phase using structural adhesive.4:12 The team manages the weight of the approximately 80-kilogram beam by using a pulley system and manual positioning.23:05 Once the beam is aligned and bonded, the crew prepares for the final stage: laminating the joint with fiberglass to ensure a permanent, load-bearing connection.15:15 The project also includes installing a new bow roller assembly and preparing the forward deck area for trampoline attachments.3:50 The work is part of a larger refit project, with the team focusing on finishing structural tasks before moving to the bow sections.4:13
