plank row boat
Strip planking wooden boats. the strip planking method of boat building could be described as a form of carvel planking. however, using strips is a form of construction which is much more suitable for the back yard builder. using this method a beautifully round bilged boat can be built with less skill and tools than with carvel.. Hull type: traditional round bilge whitehall rowing hull for wood or fiberglass construction. wood version features glued and edge-nailed "bead and cove" strip planking (no plywood is used in this version). fiberglass version features single skin "one-off" fiberglass planking (c-flex).. Stringers give the bottom planks support especially in boats that can go fast and smack up and down- they are probably unnecessary in a boat this size- but i wanted to ensure the bottom could support my weight without flexing /cracking the finish along the edge of each rib. i cut rebates into the bottom of the ribs about 200mm out from the keel..
