Sven Yrvind continues construction on his small, shallow-draft boat in Laxo, focusing on structural reinforcement and steering components. He fabricates a new axle from duplex alloy, noting its superior strength compared to 316 stainless steel.▶ 1:17 For lifting the vessel, he utilizes a 200-meter, 10-millimeter polyester line from Rødbryn, which has a breaking strength of 2.8 tons.▶ 2:11 Yrvind applies an eight-millimeter layer of epoxy to the hull, ensuring a watertight seal.▶ 3:01 He installs the aft mast holder by roughening the contact surfaces and securing it against the transom, with plans to reinforce the assembly with fiberglass.▶ 3:38 Additionally, he modifies the steering system by grinding the plywood hockey sticks and adjusting the position of the dead pedal to improve ergonomics.▶ 4:59 He prepares to install the door, which requires removing the mattress to clear the workspace.▶ 4:59 These modifications prioritize structural integrity and mechanical reliability for his planned voyage to New Zealand.
