I've pulled off the small patches of planking that were added lat time the canoe was recovered. Between the new holes and the patches, there are a lot of holes in the planking. Looking carefully at the inside of the planks, there are also many spots that are fairly rotten. I've mapped out the planking plan and marked the bad spots and broken planks. If I replace planks in longer pieces so the number of joints is kept to a reasonable number, I'm afraid I might as well replace all the planking. There are really very few places the planking looks good from the inside.
