Looking really good Willie. I am just preparing my bulkhead edges to take the planking. Will update the build diary soon. A quick question though, do you think we have to sand the deck edge back to the bulkhead as it looks like this is the images through the instructions. I only ask because at the minute the deck edge projects a reasonable amount and it seems wrong to take it that far back.  Cheers
Peter

Cheers for the heads up on frame 11 willie, i haven't had much time recently due to work to get on with it so i still working my way through preping the hull frames. i will make sure that i have sanded it back enough. Your model is looking really good, smooth planking to the bow , hope i get it to that level of finish. well done Cheers
