Planking the sides

Portside

Here in the photo, the rear plank halves are being pressed on with clamps.

Starboard

Here on the starboard side, the work has already progressed much further.
You can clearly see the additonal fastening borders, which have been attached to give the clamps more hold. These slats will be carefully removed later.

You can also see that the lower planks have already been given a coat of varnish to protect the wood.
