Il "Nodo Savoia" è molto affidabile come "nodo di arresto" nell'ambito della nautica, svolgendo un ruolo cruciale nel prevenire scotte o drizze dal fuoriuscire dai loro bozzelli. La sua struttura a otto si dimostra perfetta per bloccare in modo sicuro e affidabile le linee, garantendo che rimangano saldamente al loro posto durante le varie manovre a bordo. L'esecuzione del "Nodo Savoia" come nodo di arresto è semplice ed efficace. Creando una serie di nodi sovrapposti, il "Savoia" forma una barriera che impedisce alle cime di scivolare fuori dal bozzello. Questa caratteristica lo rende particolarmente adatto per fissare in modo sicuro le scotte delle vele o i drizze alle relative pulegge, assicurando che rimangano saldamente ancorate durante la navigazione. Quando siete in mare aperto e la sicurezza delle vostre manovre è fondamentale, il "Nodo Savoia" diventa un alleato affidabile per evitare inconvenienti e garantire un controllo ottimale delle vele. Sintonizzatevi al nostro video didattico per imparare rapidamente e facilmente come eseguire questo nodo di arresto, rendendo la vostra esperienza di navigazione ancora più sicura e piacevole. Buon vento e nodi saldi a tutti! https://elearning.nauticain4settimane.it https://www.nauticain4settimane.it https://www.enjoysailing.it https://www.latuabarcascuola.it

1. Remove the old caulking. We use a special tool from @teakdeckingsystems. 2. If your deck is both screwed and glued, considwe removing the screws. We chose to remove the screws since they only created a possibility for water to enter the construction. 3. Fill out every screw hole with epoxy. During the renovation, we learned it would be a good idea to fill the holes with epoxy as soon as you remove the screws to ensure you seal every single hole. 4. Route between all the teak strips. We routed all the way to the gel coat to have as much wood to work with as possible. We used a fine cutter where the caulking was across the grain. 5. Seam sanding. It helps remove the remaining caulking and gives the teak a fresh bonding surface. 6. Masking the teak strips. We chose to mask the wood to reduce the sanding process later on because we knew the teak wasn’t very thick. 7. Cleaning off with acetone. This helps remove dust and gives the caulking the best conditions to adhere to the wood and cure. 8. Start caulking. We used an air compressor caulking gun. It makes the process easier for large surfaces that need caulking - we used SIS 440 from @teakdeckingsystems. We also used a 3D-printed applicator for the caulk head, which minimizes the amount of caulking used. I could only find it on @hfindustrimarineaps website. 9. “Spoon” caulk further into the seams. We used a flexible putty knife to smoothing the caulking. 10. Pull off the masking. While removing the tape, we used scissors to cut just before the area where it hadn’t been caulked yet. 11. Remove the top of the caulking. We used a sharp stanley knife. We did this to minimize sanding, just as we did with masking. 12. Sanding with grit 80. We used the fine cutter’s sanding head for all the edges and an orbital sander for the larger areas. Side note: Sanding with grit 40. We believe the best way is to sand before routing to even out the wood. Unfortunately, we had many places where the wood was so worn out that it wouldn’t have been possible to follow the old tracks with the router after sanding. #diy #sailing #sailingdiy #teak #teakdeck #sailingdenmark #boatwork #shortoftheday
