O que este vídeo aborda
Johan and Malin continue the custom build of their 52-foot sailboat, Ran 3, by constructing the cockpit coamings and aft end sections.4:22 The process involves vacuum bagging large panels using three layers of 600-gram biaxial fiberglass on each side, requiring approximately 13 kilograms of glass and 11 kilograms of epoxy per panel.9:21 The team integrates new cockpit end boxes into the design to serve as both backrests for seating and housing for the steering mechanism, eliminating the need for a traditional steering pedestal and increasing usable space on the aft deck.14:41 These structures are tabbed to the hull and bulkheads to ensure rigidity.15:00 The build team plans to mount the life raft on the pushpit rather than in a recessed deck area to avoid debris accumulation.22:41 Future work includes installing the aft deck, followed by extensive sanding and fairing of the cockpit area.19:41
