Brian, Your question was where to start. Usually start at the stern so the flow goes over the end joints. When joggled, but if a strap joint is used not important. But builders are very traditional. At the keel fit the first row. Then miss and lay another inside( not inside the frames
) row. when the missed row is laid it laps over the inside layers. Can also start at top deck level working down, in the same manner. Some times this will mean a row with inside on one edge, and outside on the other. This will be at the turn of the bilge.
