Lithium batteries and 3D printed boat parts S1 Ep 15

Since we pulled out our Atomic 4 and are still waiting for our electric motor to show up, we got started with making our battery boxes and getting all sixteen of our 48v, LiFePO 4 batteries installed and wired. When we do get our motor, we will go waaaay more in depth about how much power we will have, our projected range and how we are hoping to keep them charged while we are out.

We also had more boat parts designed by Phillip in CAD and printed by Tom. Our new helm box could support and elephant, but for now it will house our main compass and throttle control, along with the occasional drink. Eventually we would like to add some very basic controls for the auto pilot that we plan to install when the bank account allows.
