Moving the Main Sheet Attachment for our Sailboat to the Doghouse Roof [2.35]
In this video, we take on the final steps of building and installing a carbon beam/arch to relocate the main sheet to the roof of the doghouse. We start by laying up the core, followed by carefully applying the carbon layers and setting up the infusion stack. Then comes the exciting part-running the infusion and finally uncovering the results. Will it be strong enough? Watch to find out!

In late August 2020, we set sail from Sweden on our first big adventure - a year-long journey to the Caribbean and back. Fast forward to October 2023, we took the plunge again and bought a Wasa 530, a sailboat that had been sitting idle for over 15 years. She's in need of some serious TLC, and we're on a mission to transform her into the ultimate blue water cruiser! On our channel, you'll follow every step of this exciting journey - from boat renovations to ocean-ready upgrades, and everything in between. We post new videos bi-weekly on Saturdays, so subscribe and join us as we bring this beauty back to life! ??More about our boat, Anne-Mon II: http://sailingannemon.com/about/the-boat-anne-mon-ii/ ?
