    Besides being very unusual that's just beautiful.

    Congratulations. That running angle looks way stern heavy though. Just wrong timing for the shot?

    Wow! Retractable on 3 sides. I know you've done your homework Kurt, but lots of questions come to my feeble mind, such as the robustness of the actuators. Humidity and salt are unwelcome guests, not to mention superstructure resonance and distortion when impacting waves.

    Kurt,

    When photography is complete, please send me a CD with an expanded build sheet and specs. Primadonna should be a cover girl. ;)

    Quick question... when the aft awning is in the up position, how do you disembark the boat?

    We have no problems so far. Roof system have a super strong track system and panels of carbonfibre, it can be opened/closed at full speed driving.
    Electronic system (Can Bus) have a inbuilt cell phone unit so top/windows
    be controlled by SMS.
    Floppy canvas tops are from now just history....
    This is the future...

    You mean the aft roof panel? Its also manually operated (as a hinged hatch door)
