Not sure if I need to create a Garboard Plank


Recommended Posts

Working on a Midwest Boston Tender.  Not sure if I need to create a Garboard Plank.  The instructions suggests to "Carefully trim the planks to fit as you work towards the bottom of the boat" I started shaping the Garboard plank, but not sure if I should make it or not.  Any suggestions?

Before you do anything on planking, go here and read the tutorials.  While similar, they do have their differences so pick one that works for you.   Generally... the garboard is one of the first ones done and then line off the hull for planking.
