I'm no expert and proly others can join in here to correct me. A lot of changes has been made to the hull-bottom since that picture, but yes, generally from the few visits that I've made to the factory and seen the bulkheads layout, the bulkheads layout seem to be the same here. In a high velocity crash, and in the event that the hull structure is compromised, the bow triangle is meant to deflect water away from the cockpit and protect the racers. The same goes for the rear triangle structure
