Today revealed that my positioning of the motors was way out for alignment with the propshafts and would have probably made the boat top heavy. I therefor set about making a new bulkhead and lowering the motors. To get a better idea of were the motors should be I drilled and reamed the propshaft exit holes until the propshaft aligned with the rear support and also a nice snug fit for the propshaft casing.
.
.Although it looks slightly out in the picture, it is only due to the shaft resting on the inside rim of the brass shaft case. Once the nylon end is fitted, it will be central and perfectly aligned.
.
.I wanted to keep the model as accurate as possible and was pleased that very little of the propshaft casing will be visible.
