: I have decided to build either ofthe two above. Has anyone in Australia built or began construction of these. I am a relative novice to boat building and would appreciate any help which I could be afforded. Cheers

While I am in New Zealand it is perhaps close enough to offer some advice. I started my Riviera about 6 months ago and have had no problems up to the planking stage.
The frames and keel,chines & inside planking are all Macrocarpa which is really cheap in this country. The outside veneer is to be Mahogany.
