Notice the solid engine mount reinforced with a G-10 machined fiber glass piece that also supports the rear sponson rod & is a gusset for the bottom boat joint; the front sponson is also supported in the same manner; these pieces also form the gas tank mounts, which are covered with silicone rubber; the angled skid fin mount with a .0625 thick full wedge shapped spring steel skid fin; & the aluminum sleeve mounting of the carbon fiber sponson tubes. Solid carbon fiber rods are used through the hull & high modulas hollow tubes in the sponsons. The tanks end pieces are drawn formed tin steel (done in a die).
