Passengers / Cargo

An enclosed cabin containing two front seats – an additional passenger can be accommodated on the front seat though such arrangements are cramped. The seating is fitted with safety straps. The driver's position is fitted with basic mechanical controls and a console that provides basic information such as velocity.

Internal cargo storage: 3m³ (given over to a crew bunk). Maximum load: restricted by volume only.

Equipment

Headlights and running lights. Basic environmental controls (the hull is weatherproof but is not sealed). Small (typically 200 km range) radio communicator.
