A bit of help please about preparation for planking

[Peter Cane]

Hello all.

I need a bit of help please.

On my Bluenose plan it indicates a rabbet in the keel to accept the garboard strake.

I think they mean a champfer?

Here us a pic of what I think the plans mean.

Is this right?.

Do I champfer the spline near the rudder department( the hatched in area)?

What is the best way about getting the size and shape of a garboard strake please?.

Many thanks for reading this.

Pete.

It's okay!

I have downloaded David Antscherl's project on planking and it has given me all I need to know.

Whoever was responsible ( besides David himself)

Thank you very much for making this valuable information available.

It is indeed a Rabbett and not a champfer.

It is now merely a matter of doing it.

Childsplay!.... ahem!!!....NOT!!!
