The fore half of the hull has been completely planked – well at least the first layer of planks. 
I started with the starboard side and I learned quite a lot during that process. I applied that knowledge to the port side which resulted in an asymmetrical but much easier to achieve lay of the planks. As there will be another layer of planks that does not matter at all – the important thing is she shape of the hull and this is the same on both sides.
As you can see on the lower picture I started planking the aft half – not long before I can marvel at a massive, voluminous and bold hull……
