It's available in a 4 seat or 6 seat canopy. This open cockpit is a 6 seater.

WOW !!! Look at the rocker Pete has put into these new hulls !!!

Unless my eyes are deceiving me it even appears he has a little something
going on after the 2nd step !!!

Perhaps with the turbines being so much lighter then other power plants, he needed to make some adjustments?

It's the same bottom. No changes are required for turbines.
