Description:
Using an adze to cut off the head of a driven treenail, making the planking smooth. Dubbing is the adze users word for trimming small amounts of wood. This is a small vessel under repair; some of the planking is being replaced, mostly that above the waterline in a process called retopping. This is the plank that is subject to drying from the sun, and often is most vulnerable to rot.
