Clinton,
I remember that your SeaRey cruised at 85 Kts with wheels up or down. I wonder if this one with a Rotax 914 and constant speed prop is really that much faster?
An autopilot on a SeaRey? This would have to be the first!
A brilliant adventure for Michael Smith and I wish him a very safe and enjoyable trip. And great hospitality from the Yacht Clubs. Enjoy!
