I'm building my first kit now. I choose the Venture 60. Althrough it does call for a 60 engine, the kit is very easy to build. I've only been working on it for 4 days now... and am half way through the build. The parts are very well milled and fit great. The directions are clear and easy to follow. I'm very happy with it so far. Bruce Tharpe has been more then helpful the few times I had a questions.
