Row-me/drifter 1st timer suggestion

Hello,
I am new to the site and boat building. I have good experience on wood working and been exposed to boats all my life but never built one.

For my first boat I'm looking at buying plans for Row-me by Glen-L. https://www.boatdesigns.com/products.asp?dept=183 It seems simple and inexpensive. Mainly I'll be using the boat in lakes and slow rivers powered by rowing.

What about the https://www.boatdesigns.com/products.asp?dept=819
?? is it too complicated for first timer?

What do you think of these boats? Any suggestions?

Thank you in advance.

Both would be easy builds if you are use to working with wood.
