More Planks

People often say to me.. "what are you doing in my garden ???"

No, that's not it, people often say to me, "how many planks ?" It's the standard question now about the boat. The answer is 11. We have all 6 down one side and 5 down the other, which means if you look at it from the near side, it's pretty much finished.

Can you tell what it is yet ?

As you can see, the port side is fully "planked".

The transom has certainly been a work in progress, but don't worry about the glue stains, Chris can sand those out.

The photo below really gives you a sense of her shape.

As Chris said, you have to admit, it's starting to look a little bit like a boat.

Oh, and yes, plank six, is covered in clamps. Be patient. I'll take them off, sand the ends and take some more photos.

Did we mention that we made a LOT of clamps.
