It looks like a nice seaplane. Better than most. But...

The sponsons and the nose block the view a lot, which is a show stopper for me. click on link and you can see the effect of the sponsons --can hardly see down. http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.123922860951634.20135.123921107618476&type=1

Also notice the beaching...that is the major issue with seaplanes. They cannot get out of the water well. Landing gear...
