What this video covers

Sven Yrvind walks through the port-side stowage layout of his small boat, Ulven, detailing how interior space is allocated across six numbered berth compartments.1:22 Compartments one, two, four, and five are assigned to water storage; compartment three holds batteries.1:30 A spare for compartment two exists, and a forward space could add roughly 30 liters of water if needed.2:59 He received a delivery from El Isolation in Laxå, supplied by Harriet, containing Teflon rod for locking systems, two 25 mm diameter tubes for the rotor hinge, and experimental hand-hole stock in 15 mm and 20 mm diameters — the 20 mm judged adequate, the 15 mm too thin.0:22 Compartment six requires laminate repair: removing the lead ballast damaged the inside lamination.1:37 Yrvind notes that a G11 rod handhold in that area shows no condensation, unlike stainless steel fittings, which draw cold from the outside and condense moisture below deck.2:15 The starboard side is next to be fitted out.3:16
