Reasons to REPLACE your THRU HULLS! | YACHT REBUILD WEEK 24

Episode 30
– We add our access hatch to our basin cabinetry to prevent any flexing while we epoxy her in.

-We drew up our window frames on Solid Worx and got them cnc routered. We fit them in to make sure they were the correct sizes, we did not epoxy them on. We have decided to wait till we do the windows to prevent any damage to the frames due to our windows leaking a bit.

-We fit in and epoxy the rest of our cabinetry frames.

-My Grandpa and Aunt come to visit and make sure we haven’t fallen asleep on the job 😛

-We remove our through hulls and show you how damaged and kaput they were. Ricky also explains some reasons why its sometimes a good idea to replace your through hulls if you have just purchased an older boat like we have.

– We also received our gas water heater (geyser) in the post and chat a bit about it.

Thanks for watching.
