Two Water Giants plus a bunch of other valuables, all in one system

In my latest weekly update to my current exploration trip log thread, I mention discovering a system with two Helium-rich giants and a Water Giant. My question now is, has anyone found a system with two water giants in it before? Because I just found one, also in Xothuia Sector. Here's the system map, with points of interest highlighted.

To sum up, planets 5 and 7 are Water Giants. Planet 4, which co-orbits 5, is a huge Ammonia World. And of the five worlds orbiting the Y dwarf in the number 2 slot, three are terraformable, including a lovely blue marble waterworld (I've just realised, the four satellites I've labelled as "HMC" are actually all Rocky worlds). The other gas giant is a Class II. It's quite a valuable system, despite the lack of any ELWs, so you'll excuse me if I excise the system name from the pic.

This system has now tripled the number of Water Giants in procedurally-generated systems that I have found and scanned.
 
I have a dozen or so systems with multiple Water Giants. The most I have found in one system is three. Looks like the EDSM record is four. Too bad Water Giants are among the least valuable bodies credits wise. Still, this is a cool system with the variety of things in it.
 
I've seen a few systems with 2 water giants and a small handful with 3. They seem fairly common in Herbig Ae/Be systems, and I actively hunt out Herbig systems so that's probably skewing my results... (FWIW, Ammonia worlds also seem relatively more common in Herbig systems).

Cool system though :). Love a good WW CFT moon.
 
I used to make a note of these but stopped before Distant Worlds. There is one system in my records with three water giants: Choomee HG-Y f1291. Planets 2, 5 and 7 are water giants. There are no other systems in my notes with more than one but I vaguely remember seeing two in a system once or twice. I've never seen one in a binary with an Ammonia World that I remember, so that's a very unusual system you have there! Some interesting scenery in that sector as well, with many nebulae nearby ;)
 
According to my database on my last trip I had 7 systems with 2 Water Giants and 2 systems with 3.
I can provide system names if you'd like to vist.
