What this video covers
Sven Yrvind installs a satellite antenna inside his boat by mounting it on a shelf using epoxy and three screws.▶ 0:00 He initially secures the antenna with two temporary iron screws while the epoxy cures, then replaces them with shorter, permanent screws and washers.▶ 0:15 To route the antenna cable to the AIS unit, he drills a 3mm pilot hole through the bulkhead near the ventilation system to verify the location.▶ 1:19 He then expands the hole to 16mm using a lathe-turned tool and files to accommodate the cable connector.▶ 2:24 The antenna sits in a position chosen to maintain a clear signal path, avoiding interference from the solar panels mounted on the exterior.▶ 1:57 After routing the cable, he coils the excess wire and secures it in the corner of the cabin.▶ 2:44
