Welcome to SoS Hendrik!
Choosing a kit depends on what the buyer wants, be it high quality, appropriate for the amount of experience, cheap price, and the list goes on. If you are looking for quality, as a beginner you may want to consider the three boat beginner series designed by David Antscherl and available from Model Expo.
https://modelexpo-online.com/Model-...-Series-with-Tools-Glue-and-Paint_p_5290.html You will learn good habits with this series and has been well received for a number of years now. Model Ship Dockyard models would be a fantastic choice once you have some experience. Study the build logs of the various kits you see here and that might help you decide.
