Start by following the sweep of the tow rail and position the planks roughly first........

Using the TD 45° angle cutter, work around any deck rail fittings by laying down a strip of radiused Teak-it-Easy and marking off the points before cutting. 

Set the margin in place and glue down by masking first as with the stern section. 

Then fill the panels inside.  Work from the outside margin inwards.  When it comes to laying the panels down.

Any fittings as usual should be cut around first. 

Eventually the side panels will meet the inside margin and here they should be cut off. 

The angle can be established by using the template method.  This involves laying over a small piece of 7602 so that it is flush with the edge of the strip beneath. 

Then mark off where the other edge of the template lies and move down the margin’s length marking in intervals as you go. 

Finally cut along the pencil line to achieve the wedge shaped plank. 

As the bend goes around the corner of the margin the wedge becomes less exaggerated. 

When gluing the side panels with Stelmax, work down the tongue in small sections and allow the side panels to dry before laying the bedding adhesive.

After applying the bedding adhesive, relay the side panel down just off the final resting position leaving a gap for the Stelmax to be applied on the outer margin. 

Then gently move the Stelmax panel into the groove and it should fit nicely into place.  As usual, apply the roller down the length to ensure the decking panels bind solidly with the Teak-it-Easy adhesive.
