I was talking in general about any boat that anyone is thinking about building and not a particular boat. Basically make sure you can get all the parts, (cowl, wings and decals).
By the way, to the original post, the Newton plans that ML is referring you to are for reference only and not build...
I have built a bunch of the ML kits. The first time I tried I did 2 8255 gas hulls side by side. It took me about a year to build them both to completion. But I was not in a rush. In the last two years,
I have built maybe 8 ML kits. 1/10, 1/8 and 1/6th kits. They are all basically the same...
I’m really happy with the way this entire hull has come out. I sold my other gas scale at the Gas Nats last year and started on this one. This got put on the side and I built 5 other Scale boats. I finally got a chance to get this one completed just in time for the Gas Nats this year. lol!!
