It is a good feeling when you finish the planking. Almost there. -

You have nothing to lose by trying to glue this piece on. I would place the garboard plank on a piece of wax paper and try to glue the little sliver on. It is doubtful if it will work because it may pop off when you bend the plank. But it is worth a try and if it fails, you can always order a replacement part. The other option is to cut your own plank using the outline of the plank from the sheet where the garboard was laser cut. I doubt if there is any excess wood in the kit, so you may have to source a basswood sheet from a hobby shop or possibly Michaels or Hobby Lobby. Good luck on this.

Thanks everyone for your comments. I put this build on hold while I was building my Medway Longboat and some other projects. I agree that it is time to get back to work on this model. We have a couple of members of my club that are building this kit, so I plan on joining them as I am a little further along in my build. It will be nice to see this kit finished.

Hi Tom. Glad you pulled this kit out of the closet and started this build. It is an excellent kit and should be a fun build.

Nice start to your build. Your model railroading experience will help you on this build.

Hi Alex and welcome to Model Ship World. The Lowell Grand Banks Dory is an excellent introduction to wooden ship modeling by the first time builder. If you get a chance, please post a picture of your Lego ship in a bottle.

Nice start to your build. You will learn a lot on this build plus you have an excellent start on your build log. I look forward to following this build.

Hello from Mocksville, North Carolina

Hi Scottie and welcome to Model Ship World. As Hank said in the above post, you have come to the right forum to enhance your wooden ship model skills. -
You have made a lot of progress on your Longboat and it is looking great. You will find the masting and rigging very satisfying as you head to the finish line.

Steve, I have a set of Glardon-Vallorbe 5 1/2" needle files that I use a lot. These are the #2 cut, which is a medium cut. I recently received a #0 cut of these files which is a course cut, but have not really used them yet. I was surprised at how often I use these files. https://www.ottofrei.com/Glardon-Vallorbe-LA2442-2-Needle-File-Sets-of-6-5-1-2-14-cm-Medium

Lynn, I am glad to see you step up to a more difficult build. You will do just fine, especially with all of the support that you will receive from the members here. I tagged your title for your Phantom and I see that there are many excellent build logs for this kit. It looks like Model Shipways has replaced the old instructions with a newer guide to building this model that was written by Chuck Passaro. His guide is a big improvement over the old kit instructions. I look forward to following your build.

Welcome to Model Ship World Blair. You will do just fine on your Chaperone build judging by the excellent work on your model railroad. I love the era that you are modeling for your model railroad.

Welcome to Model Ship World Benjamin. You have the right attitude in building your Bounty. So many ship model kits are never finished. Good luck on your build. -
Welcome to Model Ship World Kloppie. There is a wealth of information on MSW to help you on your Endeavour build. If you get a chance, please post a picture of your Smit Rotterdam.

Wow Floyd! What a bummer having to find a new home so quick. I have attached the materials list for the masting package. I hope you can find time to get back to your build. Medway Masting Materials.pdf

Welcome to Model Ship World. You have picked a good kit for your first wooden ship model kit. If you click on the "Lowell Grand Banks Dory" tag below the title at the top of this page, it will display all of the build logs on MSW of this kit. This kit builds into a very nice model. Good luck on your build.
