Hello, and greetings from Pennsylvania...

My wife has finally realized that there really is something to this addiction to plastic that we all have, and she wants to build her first kit. Which brings me to the reason of this post: She wants to start with building a submarine, which I can say unfortunately I have never tackled yet, and I would like to know of a good beginner kit to steer her towards. Any suggestions??

Thanks,
Gunny
