O que este vídeo aborda

The owners of the catamaran *Mistertong* are performing a structural refit of the deck-mounted stanchion bases to prevent water ingress. The project involves removing existing stanchion hardware, grinding out damaged areas, and installing custom-fabricated plates to seal the deck. The crew uses a hole saw to cut mounting points for Dyneema lifelines, ensuring the lines exit the resin cleanly.1:27 After removing the old hardware, they grind the deck surface to expose the original fiberglass stratification, apply epoxy, and finish with marine mastic to create a watertight seal.2:18 The process requires accessing the underside of the deck through the engine compartment to remove backing plates and nuts.6:27 Simultaneously, the interior refit continues with the fabrication of custom cushions and curtains for the cabins using Sunbrella fabric.9:34 The crew also troubleshoots an electrical issue with a battery presence sensor that repeatedly requires re-soldering.20:44 The primary goal of the deck work is to eliminate potential leak points around the stanchion bases and improve the overall structural integrity of the deck-to-hull interface.
