I have couple of questions:

- Does anybody knows why, besides Lazzara, nobody attempts to install quad IPS configuration? It has been like 2 years since the 75 Quad with 600s and now 92 quad with VP IPS 850s. Does Lazzara have exclusive rights for quad IPS configurations? If not, why not anybody else?

- Any intel about hybrid (diesel/electric) IPS possibility? When I say electric, I mean serious, like 200 hp electric motor coupled with IPS 600s... not 7 hp for 5 knots in the marina (it sounds like a joke, but hopefully a good start).

Thanks..
