The Carol Moran is nearly all plastic moulding and so pretty easy to assemble, although it's not very big. I am currently building another (larger) Dumas kit, the Lord Nelson Victory tug, and I can say that in over fifty years of making models this is the worst kit I have ever handled.
The quality of the wood is dreadful (I've had to throw all of the planking away); the die-cutting of the plywood is lousy and crunches up the edges of the frames, and the superstructure is made of some high-density foam plastic board which is heavy and very reluctant to bend and glue. It will probably be replaced with ply. When finished - if I ever get that far - my model will be over 80% non-Dumas parts and material. All in all £250 wasted. Whatever you choose, avoid this one - it's a dog!
