If intend to image later this year , I would have Don order a dual speed focuser now and fit it later on ( I suspect they wouldn’t have a dual speed focuser in stock as it’s a special order for this size scope )

Ah, yes, I'll be sure to request one of those. I actually went there today and (I didn't have the sense to ask for a name) the person who helped mentioned the 6" F5/6 newts did have a dual speed focuser (or maybe one of them did). Anyway, I'll be sure to order that if not present already.
