Ardmore Carbon Cub Clarification

On my way to Whitianga yesterday I called into Ardmore (as you do) and sighted the Carbon Cub floatplane that is in the Avspecs hangar.

It is in fact N47MV (c/n CC11-00258) that is on amphibious floats and is normally carried on the sloop rigged superyacht M5 (ie it has a huge mast - in fact it is the largest single mast yacht ever built) that was previously the Mirabella 5.  Have a squizz at: http://www.superyachtworld.com/yachts/m5-exclusive-ron-holland-airplane-largest-sloop-7285

It is at Avspecs for maintenance.
