Covering Boards

All Shamrock's eight new 2 in (50 mm) thick oak covering boards have been roughly shaped, thinned and temporarily screwed into place. The bulwark stanchions holes have been cut as a tight fit at the bottom with the top half being tapered out to form a caulking seam also the ends of the boards that abut one another have had their caulking seams cut. Once the inner lines of the boards have been marked the boards will be removed, faired to the lines, the outer edges rounded, before finally being fixed into place.
