    Finding out decking plank lengths?

    Morning,
    I’m currently trying to put together the Queen Mary 1 model but im struggling to find information on the deck planking lengths so I can use this to scale some masked planks on my model. I was wondering if anyone knows where this kind of info can be found or whether it’s a case of trying to find a picture of deck and scaling with eyes against something, e.g, a plank looks two rowing boats long etc?

    Carl,
    your best bet is https://www.ebay.co.uk/p/88114394?iid=372953195065 - The anatomy of the ship - Queen Mary ISBN 10: 0851775292 / ISBN 13: 9780851775296
    You may be able to find it at a library - either way, the drawings in this book will answer your questions........
