Default Chris Craft????

I was looking at the chris craft boats, and they are so good looking. I want to build one but this would be my first boat.....ever. I normally fly rc airplanes but once I saw these boats I can't resist. Which one should I get that won't be too hard for me?

Do you build your r/c airplanes? Have you built 'anything' yet? If not, one of those CC kits is not what you want to start on.

Well, have I got an answer for you!
Dumas's 19' Racing Runabout is about the easiest one to start with, and not too $$$. And what do you know, it's featured in my how-to book!

thanks, i think i will go with that one. man these boats are just cool, they have such a nice classic look to them. when i go fishing on my bass boat i sometimes see the full size Chris Crafts and they run so nice in the water.
