I built the Amsterdam kit as my very first model boat and found it to be excellent. The instructions are good, and the finished model performs well on the water. Give it a go.

Hi Slug,  I would totally agree with Peter, it's a good kit that makes a great tug.  I have attached a few pics of mine.  If you need more info just ask   cheers Ray
