What this video covers
The 46-ton steel vessel Brewpeg undergoes a haul-out at Port City Fabrications for hull maintenance, including antifouling and plumbing modifications.Watch During the haul-out, the owner cleans the bilge of oily sludge and antifreeze, noting that the vessel’s air conditioning unit currently drains directly into the bilge.0:56 To improve future maintenance, the owner modifies a grey water outlet by installing a ball valve and a barrel union, allowing for easier removal of congealed fat and debris from the plumbing.9:21 The crew also inspects the internal water tanks, which feature clear inspection hatches, and plans future repairs to address minor rust and install new stainless steel pickups to increase usable water capacity from 4.7 to 5.3 tons.9:44 After confirming the prop shaft grease seal is intact, the vessel is relaunched.17:05 Port City Fabrications donates the labor costs for the haul-out, allowing the project to allocate more funds toward cadet training and permanent crew.18:27
