Completing the installation of the new bulkheads, lateral supports, battery mount, and Place Diverter mount signifies the end of the woodworking stage of this jet boat rebuild. Finally! Since I moved the location of my stringers outwards, that necessitated some rework of the bulkheads. Rather than rework the existing bulkheads, I created more work for myself and made new ones. The existing bulkheads needed to be up to my standards! Now I took this opportunity to revamp the philosophy of all the woodwork and structure in the boat. I moved the main bulkhead rearwards and added an additional bulkhead in the front to support the bow. The spacing and location of the bulkheads ties in with my approach on my "engine box" and lateral supports. During the video, I explained my reasoning for why and what I was trying to achieve. The last tasks that I had to complete in the "woodworking" category were to build a provision for a battery mount, develop a mount for the Place Diverter hydraulic pump, and finally finish the rear fuel tank mounting blocks on the transom. Enjoy the video and share your thoughts in the comments!

==================================About AutoTechNick:
Growing up in rural Oregon, I was always around Hot Rods & Race Cars. I imagine my early exposure to this culture ignited a spark of interest in cars, which remains my passion.
🎓 I am a proud Alumni of Wyoming Technical Institute, where I studied Automotive Technology, Performance Engine Building & Street Rod Fabrication. In addition to "WyoTech," I graduated from the BMW Service Technician Education Program, more commonly known as BMW S.T.E.P.
🏎️ I spent nearly ten years working in various BMW dealerships as a Master Technician. After a move back home to the PNW, I found myself no longer servicing German-made machines but now working with Italians. I spent nearly another ten years as a Ferrari Master Technician & Shop Foreman at a local Ferrari dealership.
🏆 Ferrari selected me as one of 12 technicians worldwide to compete in the "Ferrari Testa Rossa Awards" for four years consecutively. Finishing in 3rd place in 2016, & in 2019 I was able to place in 1st, winning the competition & earning the title of the "Top Ferrari Technician in the World!"
🚀 As my time with Ferrari came to an end, a new career path awaited me…. Aerospace. I am currently working at Blue Origin, helping to build & develop the BE-3PM and BE-3U rocket engines.
With my new career path, I needed an outlet for my automotive passion, thus the reason for this channel…
