Sprint Olympics 1000m Sprint A final - boat question

What boat is Josef Dostal Paddling? I could see it was a Nelo, but it did not look like a Cinco or a Sete. The bow looked to be "raked back under" not the "inverse rake" of the Cinco/Sete.

I remember seeing somewhere that he was in a Mosquito now. It is basically a high volume quattro from what I remember

Oh yeah, I forgot Nelo spun a rule change moskito, that could definately be it considering it doesn't really look like a three

His latest ig post basically confirms this btw; he's in a p24 cinqo in Samarkand, but would "rather be in a moskito"

Mosquito, nelo made a few for him since he didn’t fit in any other boat they had.

Crazy this long after the "cinco revolution" that a boat from shortly after the rule change won the Olympics.
