From Peter Goodwin's The Construction and Fitting of the English Man of War, page 60:
The margin plank was the same thickness as the deck plank, but one and a half times as wide.
Just as an FYI, according to the same book, page 50, the breadth of the waterways for the lower gun deck was 3/4 the depth of the keel and 2/3 the depth of the keel on the other decks. That was a new one for me
