What this video covers
Sven Yrvind constructs custom anchor points for water storage inside a 5.9-meter boat designed for a 14,000-mile non-stop Southern Ocean passage.▶ 0:17 To secure three water jugs in cramped quarters, he creates 12 epoxy-based anchor points by taping rope into position and tacking it down with thickened epoxy.▶ 1:39 He uses peel ply over the wet epoxy to shape the mounts like clay, preventing the material from sticking to his fingers.▶ 3:35 The installation includes a yoke system to hold the jugs, reinforced with constrictor knots that are wetted out with epoxy to ensure they remain secure.▶ 6:52 For the water intake system, Yrvind opts for a simple hose connection that plugs and unplugs manually, avoiding the weight and complexity of a mechanical spigot.▶ 5:30 This method provides a lightweight, low-cost solution for securing heavy items in a single-laminate hull where traditional screw fasteners are not viable.▶ 3:09
