This Halvorsen had extensive damage to the ribs and planking mid ships which needed pulling back into shape. 12 new sister ribs were installed to the area. We steamed in a steam box and clamped into place for roving. The planks were then repaired, nailed and roved back into place. New caulking was then applied and puttied.
