Does the magazine include any steps on finishing the hull, such as sanding and filling, or is it just something that you do yourself if you need to?
If so, is the best time when you complete the hull and before you start putting the upper strakes on, or is there a better time?

It does indeed Rob, but nothing on filling which will vary from one build to another.

i found it a bit hard to sand down the curve but i guess it depends on the sanding tools you have. Processing - Progressing
Previous builds: HMS Victory
Current build: HMS Sovereign of the seas

As it's my first planking, it will need some work, but I've armed myself with a mountain of tools. Dremel, mouse sander, sanding blocks, files. You name it I've got it.
Will spend a long time making sure it's right.
