Hello all.
I have a question with regard to deck planking.
I am currently building Robert Fultons DEMOLOGOS from 1814. I have completed the hulls to deck level but am a bit stuck with the deck planking.
My question is. Would this vessel have the deck planks joggled into the margin strake or would the strake be laid on top of the planks as a covering board, or even, would she have a margin strake at all as she had no bulwarks. as she has a large expanse of deck I don't want to mess it up.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
cheers.....liam......
