Andrew, a professional shipwright from Lunenburg, visits to inspect the hull.13:56 He notes that while the planking remains sound, the frames show unusual rot patterns, likely caused by the boat sitting full of water.14:47 Andrew advises salvaging the high-quality timber from the deck and recommends using square-shank boat nails for the new framing.15:04 Joshua plans to continue clearing the hull and sourcing timber for the upcoming frame replacement.18:04
