Glue the gar plank into the rabbit. I like using PVA glue such as tight bond and clamping it into place. Don't forget to bevel one edge of the length of the planks so they fit together more closely. Also glue the plank edges to the next plank not just glue the planks onto the bulkheads.

ok. Thanks
Having a bit of trouble getting the gar plank into the rabbit at the bow, me thinks a lot more boiling water is needed.
I did not glue the planks together on the first attempt nor had I sanded the edges of the planks. That resulted in a less than satisfactory planking. Call that lazy and impatient.
