For the construction of this strip plank Vertue MK II Warren was supplied with both the 1984 wood epoxy strip plank construction plan which includes the bulkhead layout for 114.004 & 71812 and was the basis of the full size frame templates issued for later boats, and the 1946 construction plan outlining the traditionally constructed deck works and doghouse structures and includes very comprehensive specifications of the fastenings. Drawings for the updated plywood built long doghouse were also included. For the first time the Vertue strip plank construction stock plan package also included an A4 format booklet ‘construction notes’ outlining the materials and procedures for constructing the hull and deck works.
Warren selected the bermudan slutter rig and standard Laurent Giles Vertue schematic drawings were provided for the standing rigging and running rigging.
