Will do WabbleTake it step by step Martin, better slow and steady than fast and redoing it all over again. With the planking on Victory is taking shape.

Hope I don't bore you, will probably take me ages. Martin

Thanks Bri. I think I shall need it. MartinWill be following with interest, built a few in my late teenage years (many moons ago) but could never get the last few planks right and don't start me on the rigging, anyways all the luck Martin
Thanks Garry. Got two planks on yesterday, just waiting for a third to dry, then should be able to get a fourth later. MartinThat is great start Martin, just take one step at a time, and if I can do it anyone can.
Cheers
Garry
If you tap the photo it will come up a lot clearer Chris. Good day Martin.Martin can you please fit on full size pics as i cant see these small thumbnails all that well

Thanks Jim. There is a couple or three places I'm not too sure about, however the beauty of this planking is that it all gets covered with more planks, on the second lot. MartinSlow and steady is the way with this I reckon. Looks neat work.
