Propulsion study and V2 modeling

- Session summary:
Work on the boat's propulsion and the materials to be used.

- What we did:
Study the link between engine and propeller via a drive shaft passing through the hull. Choice of water-resistant materials (stainless steel, brass, engineering plastics).
Revised boat dimensions: 60 cm long, 18.5 cm high.
Start of modeling in Autodesk Fusion. Launch of version 2 (V2) of the boat.

- Results / Progress :
Better adaptation of dimensions to internal layout. Good basis for propulsion.

- What we need to do:
Complete digital modeling of the hull and engine system.

- What we'll do next time:
Finalize the 3D design of the boat on Autodesk fusion.
