Hello, I've not been able to work on Triton as we've been looking after the grandkids til my daughter gets home, so workroom has been out of bounds, but managed a couple of hours today and removed some planking and replaced said planking with alterations. I have to admit that I have struggled with this planking, I think it is because I didn't spend enough time fairing the bulkheads. I'm thinking I may copper this side of the hull and paint what is not covered and put a bit more effort and preparation into the other side. There are no photos as yet but I will post some next time. I have to get better at planking before I start Winchelsea 🤨 Cheers and thanks for likes, comments and stopping by 👍🙂

Hi Tony, I've watched Chuck's videos on planking using the iron for edge bending, and had a go myself on Triton, I think is possibly the best method of planking round the bow. Thanks for your advice, it is always welcome and helpful 😁 Yes I feel the same, hopefully by the time I start Winchelsea I can attempt a decent job of it. Cheers 👍🙂

Tony it's nice to see you back.🙂. Regards the planking problem it was the bow I had the trouble, I had not noticed the stern, but now you've pointed it out to me I can see that also, thankyou. 👍 I will take some planking off at the stern as well, which will help me out as I was going to alter the way the planks terminate at the stern . I'm glad you saw it and pointed it out as I had no idea and would have carried on regardless, This is why I have not started Winchelsea yet as my planking needs a bit more fine tuning. Hopefully the next session post will show the improved version. Cheers 👍😁

Hi again, bit of a set back on the planking, I took off the planks at the bow as I had not put a drop plank below the wale and could not get the second belt of planking to run correctly. Hopefully now it will and I can make progress again. Also I need to sort out how the planking terminates at the stern because at the moment I don't think it is working out, so I may be removing a few planks and re-fitting them when I've figured out what to do. Thanks for your interest and likes👍 Cheers 😃

Hello!! Welcome to MSW

Got a couple of hours on Triton tonight and managed two planks on the bow, so I now have four runs fitted, only fourteen to go, then do the other side! This is my only proper single plank hull(I know the Xsection was single plank but they were all short, straight planks) and I'm finding it difficult to keep the planks tight fitting, hopefully a bit of sanding will fill the gaps. till next time Cheers 😃👍
