With the engine bay empty, the project plan includes painting the bilges and lockers, re-plumbing the boat, and inspecting the fuel tank for potential replacement.6:33 Because the replacement Beta 25 engine is longer than the original Universal M-18, the crew must fabricate custom engine mounts and modify the forward joinery of the engine compartment to accommodate the new unit.6:51 Removing the old engine provides the necessary access to perform comprehensive maintenance and structural upgrades throughout the engine space.6:13
