Today, our team was interviewed about our ROV. I worked on waterproofing the motors for the first time which was quite tedious. It required taping over the top, bottom, and sides numerous times to ensure that it would be waterproof. Next class, I intend to finish taping my motors and plan to insert the wax to waterproof it 100%.

Today, our team separated and conquered. I finished taping the thrusters and moved on to drilling. The drilling was fairly easy and now I'm beginning to thread the tethers through the lids. I was successful when it came to that, and I plan to finish this next class.

Today, our team finished adding our final installments to our ROV by adding makeshift fishing hooks to the end of our ROV. These hooks will allow us to pick up the lid of the black thing and the octopus, which will increase our chances dramatically.
