Steve and his crew, assisted by visiting volunteers Wes and Jack, install white oak planks on the hull of the wooden boat Arabella.0:09 The team uses patterns to shape the twisted lumber, employing a power planer to remove high spots and clamps to force the oak into position against the frames.6:48 Despite the wood's initial resistance to bending, the crew uses edge-setting techniques to ensure the planks conform to the hull's curvature.8:57 The team notes that while the oak planks may develop gaps as they dry, the wood will swell to create a tight fit once the vessel is launched.20:35 The project utilizes locally sourced white oak, which the crew compares to the durable, long-lasting timber found in historic shipwrecks.20:11
