O que este vídeo aborda

The Antidote project involves re-coring the deck of a sailboat using Divinycell H100 foam and Kusa panels.2:04 After removing the old core and grinding a taper into the bulwarks, the owner prepares the surface by abrading the area and applying a thin layer of epoxy.1:32 To ensure structural integrity at high-load points, the layout includes a Kusa panel down the center of the bow for windlass mounting and a G10 insert beneath the staysail fitting.4:47 Because the Kusa panels do not naturally conform to the deck's compound curvature, the owner cuts the material to account for the changing radius of the deck's arc.7:23 Installation involves applying thin epoxy to contact surfaces followed by a thicker mixture to bond the foam, using spreader bar clamps and a 2x6 board to maintain pressure while the resin cures.9:03 The process demonstrates that careful material selection and precise shaping of rigid core panels are essential for achieving a flush fit on curved deck surfaces.
