O que este vídeo aborda

Sven Yrvind reinforces the hull of his custom high-latitude, shallow-draft boat by bonding hockey sticks to the interior structure to serve as fillets.▶ 0:01 He secures the sticks with bolts and applies fiberglass and peel ply to create a waterproof seal.▶ 0:57 After an initial attempt failed, he refined his technique by applying wider fiberglass strips to the sticks and shorter pieces to the lower sections.▶ 1:34 Once the interior bonds cure, he pours epoxy into the remaining gaps to ensure a precise, watertight fit.▶ 2:27 He plans to plug the exterior holes with Divinycell for thermal insulation before beginning work on the roof.▶ 2:23 The project aims to prepare the vessel for an eastward circumnavigation through the Southern Ocean toward New Zealand.▶ 0:20 Trial and error in composite application improves the structural integrity and precision of the hull fillets.
