Small update, planking of the lower hull on the other side now underway... Progress just as slow as first time round but am pleased to say that so far I am managing to keep both sides looking balanced... .. Think it will be a few evenings work yet before I finally close that gap.... .. Happy building all.... Regards Alan Gandale attached the following image(s):

Hi Alan, WTG my friend, that looks great. I`ve just done the main sanding job, then spread some filler to find low spots, then more sanding to come. My question is, you are using map pins to secure your second planking and if I am not mistaken you did not use the bamboo base layer, so any suggestions how to fix the second layer when you have a base layer that is nothing softer than concrete . Obviously understand if you`ve not used bamboo that may be a stupid question but, if you don`t know then maybe somebody else may. Can always hope, Regards delboy271155 (Derek) COME BACK GUY FAWKES "YOUR COUNTRY NEEDS YOU"
