It is not that bad. There are some small mistakes, which disappear with a good sanding. mine for about 55 years ago, was not that good, but on the other hand,- no information, tools poor, and no internet to help you. at that time I mostly lived in the port of Hirtshals -4Th biggest fishing port in Denmark. here I learned with 14-15 years old. when building problems I went down the Boat building unit, where I learned the steam process to bend the planks and some other things. The main difference in this type of boat -hull nearly the same -was the wheelhouse and mainly the fishing tools, made to the different fish catch.l again I had it live in the port. I thing that at that time I build about 5 units. will send some images , when In find them.Finally finished planking the hull , may not be text book but quite pleased as only my second model.
Need to shape the stern next and lots of sanding!
