# 9. Final planking. Bending planks. Clinker planking. Columbus Santa Maria. Scale 1/65
🌐English subtitles.
⛵Today, I will finish the external hull planking and demonstrate how to plank the curved hull surface. Additionally, I will deviate from the kit instructions even further. According to X. Pastor, clinker planking was utilized on Catalan naos below the forecastle. Therefore, I have decided to replicate this feature by cutting out some clinker planks from pearwood. Furthermore, the stern part appears distinct in the kit blueprints and reconstruction drawings. Therefore, I will attempt to slightly revamp it to be closer to historical reconstructions.
So, please sit back, relax, and enjoy the video as I guide you through the steps and techniques I used to complete this project.

In this video series, I am constructing a model of the Santa Maria sailboat - the largest ship from Christopher Columbus’s 1492 expedition. The model is based on a 1/65 scale kit from Amati.
As Amati ship model kits are often simplified for easier assembly, I am making significant modifications and corrections to certain elements.
To gain a better understanding of how to revamp these construction elements, I am utilizing various resources, such as ship modeling materials, online information about 15th-16th century sailboats, and Xavier Pastor’s book “The Ships of Christopher Columbus. Santa Maria, Niña, Pinta“ from the Anatomy of the Ship collection, etc.
However, due to the limited evidence available regarding the appearance of Columbus’s ships, I am allowing myself some creative freedom when building this sailboat model.
