Unfortunately these challenging times have taken a toll on the team’s progress, as the college has been shut down for the remaining of the semester. Additionally, Solar Splash has cancelled the June competition. However, our hard work will not go unseen, as the 2021 team plans to take over and test the boat during the upcoming semester. Because our team has kept to the schedule and had planned on testing this month, there are only a few tasks that must still be completed to finalize the boat. These include manufacturing the drive shaft and copper strap terminals to fit the new batteries and cutting and bending the polycarbonate cover for the electrical panel. Additionally, small tasks must be completed including adding stoppers for the cover, installing hooks to hold wires not in use, and labeling all wires and components. Because these cannot be completed at this time, the team will continue the project by putting all their focus in writing a successful final report, as well as creating a virtual senior project presentation. Check back in soon to see updates regarding report material and presentation content!
