Osmosis Posted November 18, 2017 Share #1 Posted November 18, 2017 I found a Billings Boats Santa Maria kit for sale locally on C-List and was wondering if it was a decent kit to tackle as a beginner. I have heard that it is not the most accurate or detailed version available. But would it be a good learning experience and wind up being a "decent" model in the end. By the way the asking price is $60.00. Thanks Canute 1 Quote Art Smith Current Build: E.M.
