Second Planking Section "Stealer technique"

I finished with the second planking section on both sides..
To obey the planking rule of not to taper a plank more than half of its original thickness, I had to be a bit creative on the bow section and used the
stealer technique.

This is the stern & bow so far without any sanding

I hope that sanding is enough to give me the finish I’m hoping for. But I will wait to find out for now..
