Thanks for posting those pics Zathros! I especially love the classic looks of the American Legends Cub. I bet 100 ponies gets the floats off the water. I think the Piper Cubs that were rated for floats had 85 HP.
I am getting inspired to make amphibious floats next.
I live in close proximity to Wipaire (a major manufacturer of floats in South St. Paul, MN) so I should be supporting the local business by making Wipline amphibious floats for the Beaver and Otter models.
