Grinded down the corners of motor mounts to ensure they wouldn't punch the boat

Blew the 40 Amp fuse on the main power distribution board. Will be replacing the fuse with a wire connection while maintaining the fuse for the motor controllers. 

Currently, the gps holders are inside the box restricting closing all the way 

A bent piece of aluminum similar to the drawing above allows the team to mount the antennas outside of the box while securing the antennas on the inner frame.

Using 3 ratchet straps to secure the electronics box onto the prototype boat frame

Motor fell off during testing in Lake Miramar. Need to replace the t slot nuts that were used to secure the 3d printed motor mount on the interface plate with lock nuts. Note the picture shows the interface plate with the motor already fallen off.

The lidar mount structure was removed as it interfered with the compass

The back cross bar was added to restrict movement of the back thrusters during strafing

Added 45 degree bars to the back vertical bars to reinforce back vertical motor mounts
