O que este vídeo aborda

Steve installs lazy jacks on the main and mizzen masts of the wooden boat *Arabella* to improve sail handling and containment.2:43 He constructs the lazy jack hardware using stainless steel chain links cut to size to avoid the cost of individual rings, and secures the lines to the masts using Dyneema slings.9:06 To prevent the lazy jack lines from snagging on the gaff, he uses an oscillating multi-tool to chamfer and reshape the wooden chocks on the spars.7:25 Additionally, Steve and Scott fabricate and install winch bases for the jib using cherry wood blanks, which they process in a local Portland shop before bedding and bolting them to the coamings.13:21 The team also assembles and installs a jib roller furler, cutting the foils to length and using Loctite and 5200 sealant to secure the connectors.18:13 After finalizing the furler drum adjustment and sail feeder, they successfully set the jib.19:21
