Planta, the tuck planks.

The first planks that were actually to be fitted were the trickiest and deserve special mention. This, because they had to accommodate the ‘tuck’ meant that they started out at over an inch and a half thick. They were heftily rounded over on the inner face to meet the sternpost, horn timber and associated frames. We fitted them with just the inner face shaped, leaving the exterior to be done as part of fairing the hull as a whole. This explains why they look a bit too thick in this picture, but the inner shape fays beatifully onto the structure of the vessel.
