My sweet lord, what beautiful work! I'm just looking forward (or dreading) starting on the second planking on my Caroline. It's only been 7 years or so since if finished the first planking. Any tips from a master like yourself would be most appreciated!

G'day, first of all, thank you for your generous comments, my first planking came out ok so I didn't second plank the lower half of the hull, I just painted it with flat white paint,
