Installing a new FLOOR into a 79 Centurion JET BOAT

Now that we have the transom and stringers replaced in my jetboat. It is time to turn my attention toward installing the new floor in the boat. Now I will make a few changes to how the floor will be installed this tome around, from how it was previously installed. Since I changed the placement of my stringers from 24 to 26 inches apart, I needed to make a new floor for the boat anyways. Going into this work, I had a solid plan of attack and a mental plan of what the finished product would be. Well, midway through the project, I realized that something was askew. Follow along in the video to see the issues I encountered and how I overcame them.

About AutoTechNick:

Growing up in rural Oregon I was always around Hot Rods & Race Cars. I imagine my early exposure to this culture ignited a spark of interest in cars, which remains my passion to this day.

🎓 I am a proud Alumni of Wyoming Technical Institute, where I studied Automotive Technology, Performance Engine Building & Street Rod Fabrication. In addition to "Wyo Tech", I graduated from the BMW Service Technician Education Program. More commonly known as BMW S.T.E.P.

🏎️ I spent nearly 10 years working in various BMW dealerships as a Master Technician. After a move back home to the PNW I found myself no longer servicing German-made machines, but now working with Italians. I spent nearly another 10 years as a Ferrari Master Technician, & Shop Foreman at a local Ferrari dealership.

🏆 I was selected by Ferrari as one of 12 technicians worldwide to compete in the "Ferrari Testa Rossa Awards", consecutively for 4 years in a row. Finishing in 3rd place in 2016, & in 2019 I was able to place in 1st. Winning the competition & earning the title of the Top Ferrari Technician in the world!

🚀 As my time with Ferrari came to an end, a new career path awaited me…. Aerospace. I am currently working at Blue Origin, helping to build & develop the BE-3PM and BE-U rocket engines.

With my new career path, I needed an outlet for my automotive passion, thus the reason for this channel…
