Hi Sean, welcome to Mayhem. Just a heads up about Billings kits, if you are not experienced at building you will find the Billings kit hard to do as all their kits have very poor instructions. The quality of the kits themselves are not in question, they seem to use top quality materials, (personal experience). Some other member on here may know a better kit to start with. Mick B.

The instructions can be downloaded from billing's website

They are somewhat sparse and do assume a good knowlege of boat building and terminology
