Morning EJ, It gives the hull "body" this way 😃 I am at the same level, only with single planking then. I'm busy with the last rubbing strikes..... Sjors

Very nice planking Martyn, You give the hull when finished a layer of varnish? Sjors

Enjoy Scott. And show your father the amazing builds. I'm sure he shall be proud of you wath you have done. And give him my regards 🤝 Sjors

Thanks Jason. I will see how to go at the stern. At the moment I'm busy with the rubbing strikes. I do it now because now I can use clamps. When that is done I will see what to do with the rest of the planking. And single planking is not brave but ...... ( fill in your self ) I have to do it right otherwise it's gonna be double planking. But then I need to buy some wood. @ Donn, I'm stil around. Not that much as I want to but that has other reasons. As I told Jason, busy with all kinds of planks. Sjors

Thanks Frank, With a little water and a lot of words that i can not write down, it will work.... Sjors

Thank you all . Shrimp........mmmmm i'll be going for a Heineken 🍺 @ Bob, I'm just learning from you 🙃 @Scott, The gun ports are the easy things. The rest of the planking will be more difficult😔 @Hennie, thank you! Sjors

Sam, thank you ! I will tell you a secret but please keep it in front of you. And don't tell Anja ! I used the iron...... Sjors

The top planking ( ramin ) on the starboard side is done. Under that there will be sapelli wood. And nope, not a second planking . Just single in two colors. The frames for the gun ports looks if I was drunk when I cutting them. But there is a frame coming inside and ( i hope ) you don't see a thing anymore ( in a few months ! ) Bending the planks for the bow was not that difficult but I can not say that for the stern. The plank has to be twisted ! When everything is on it I will see what I will do with the planks on the stern to get a straight line. There also are little slits between the planks. I can cover a few with the rubbing strakes but not all. Filler is out of the question because you will see that when I put Tung oil on it. Comes time, comes advise ( or something like that ) Enjoy the pictures. Sjors

Hi Duncbe, Planking looks good even or without the varnish😀👍 About the rope... I know that the kit suppliers don't send there best rope. I have change it and will change it with all my builds. I ordered my rope at morope or you can order it by Chuck ( Syren Compagny) It will be a big improvement (translations is saying that that a good word is 🙃) Sjors

Hi Duncbe, When i see the first planking i thougt , o dear.....i hope it turns out well. When i take a look at the next pictures of the finished hull i have to say....great job! And then the rigging...it looks if you have done it before. The ratlines are that straight it almost looks unreal. You can be proud of what you have done. Sjors
