Hi, Craig. While the planking may be easier with the hull upside down, once the external planking is in place it will get really challenging to maneuver around inside. It really hinges on what level of interior detail you want to add - are you going to do the wet well and bunks? Those will probably be easier to do when you can also manipulate the pieces from outside. Also, it will be a lot easier to install the ceiling (interior planking) prior to installing the exterior planking. Will be interested to see how you handle it! -

Dave - Let me add my thanks as well. These are fantastic narratives and have saved them for future reference. WELL DONE! -
Looks nice, Mario!

Looking good, sir. I think the do-overs you are taking on are definitely adding to the overall appearance!

That is a good price. I think mine was $75. Thus far it has been a good intro to POB. A couple of things to be wary of - the plans and instructions list different scales, and there are a couple of tables I couldn't find in the instructions. The instructions are pretty good, with plenty of drawings. I made a couple of mistakes early which is making the first planking more difficult than it should be.

Kevin - given the amazing job you have done with the stern I can understand why you spend so much time gazing at it! Very nice work!

Looking nice, Anja. That color will look really good on the hull.

You're good, Danny! i gave up after 3 different searches didn't come up with anything resembling this one!

Anja - let me join with the others - based on the work you have done on d'Halve Maen, I think you are, indeed, up to the task of scratch building. I will enjoy watching your artistry - I brought my own seat, though, as I know it is getting crowded!

You, Sir, have some amazingly talented spiders! Looking very good! Now about that fishing - remember, it will be difficult to convince anyone that frozen cod filets or frozen Tilapia was fresh caught today! Enjoy - and look forward to the next update!
