Nice job Eamonn. I think, you can use the 'full lenght' planks between the hatches. I did it on my Pickle too.

I agree with Eamonn, althought I'm seeing only a few photos of the hull, I think you'll not need very much filler.

Very nice work Eamonn. The timber looks much better than the kit supplied walnut.

Sorry for the late response Alfons. It's too late now - the parts are stained already. BTW, the waste would be too big. Many questions Floyd. Well, the first plank is indeed flushing with the false deck on my Endeavour. That was my interpretation of the vague instructions... For planking the bulb area you need narrow stripes. The stripes can be used just out of the box without tapering. Switching from "A" to "B" I did intuitionally. Beveling the stripes lenghtwise is only the first step you have to do, next is sanding down the 2mm stripes to the level of the "A" planking (1mm). I tapered about 10 planks of the second planking without any stealers. I think, I was just lucky with it. Thanks for stopping by David and Gary. Gary don't be afraid starting your own build log.

About the NRG
If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
