Ann Sounds like fun I'll stay tuned My only Sun is a very unusual tandem with a host of funky features, the most interesting is the foot pedal located on the boom tube. The captain lifts a foot from a pedal and steps back to stomp on the brake pedal. It brings the 60 lb monster to a screeching halt. The model is the Wasp. Please save any info upon which you stumble while searching. Thanks in advance
