I think you split the airplane with someone else as well and its probrably one of these deals where someone is supposed to be under the hood so you can both log the time, ie:Safety pilot.
I know it can be tough but if you take the time you'll get the experience you need to become one of us. The Few, The Broke, The Elite

A friend and I looked at Ari Ben when were down in Florida and it was only 6k for 100 hours. We opted not to do it simply because it was lame flying. We wanted to take the plane for a couple days and go cross country, they wouldn't let us. We wanted to go to the Bahamas, they wouldn't let us. So we went across the state and Got our Comm. SES ratings and flew floats around until we ran out of money. Then we went back to NH. Way more fun, and you might actually learn what those "rudder pedal thingys" are for!

You are exactly right. The other stipulation is that it is all at night whenever they aren't using the planes for people seeking ratings. Good time, but it may not be what you are looking for.
how true....
