First Planking
The first layer of planking has been completed, and the hull sanded fairly smooth.
Somewhere along the line, I got the fairing off a bit, which left a bit of a hollow on each side of the bow. That necessitated the use of about 1/16" of wood filler. I do take some small comfort in the knowlege that the hollows on either side were nearly symmetrical.
Onwards now to the second planking, in walnut. It'll be puuurrrty.

do you build the transom with the first planking?

It's been a while, but I recall that I added the transom after the sides were planked and trimmed to shape.
