Double Dutch outer pinewood plank (NCN 34303)3D Model
The outer pinewood plank of a double planking shiphull of a 17th century merchant ship. The shipwreck (most likely a Dutch Catship) measures 31x6m, was found in the Dutch intertidal zone Waddensea, near Kornwerderzand by Stichting Archeos Fryslan. The outer planking made of 240x30mm pinewood boards, are been nailed with iron 5mm square shaped nails to the oak inner planking. The inner oak strakes (5-6cm thick) are fastened to the frames with treenails with a diameter of 33mm. These treenails are ‘locked’ into the oak board with a square oak wedge, hammered into its center. There are traces of a waterproofing caulking material in between both boards. It could be made of hemp rope or animal hair. The assembled double set and the inner plank of this model (including caulking traces) can be observed on both sides in seperate models posted on Sketchfab. This wreck located in 2022 is still under investigation in 2023 and has been reported to the Dutch Cultural Heritage Agency (RCE)
