Using Resin Infusion to Build our DIY Doghouse for our Sailboat [2.33]

In this video, we start building the walls for the doghouse on our sailboat using resin infusion-a process that draws resin into fibers with vacuum pressure. This is the same method we'll later use to create the massive carbon fiber mainsheet beam that will be integrated into the doghouse. Since the beam is a crucial component, we're using this stage to refine our resin infusion skills. And as with any learning process, there were a few mistakes along the way-but with each section, we improved. Join us as we take on the challenge, learn from our experiences, and get one step closer to completing the doghouse!

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/ ?
