I have the 40 size floats. They are well built, but I didn't like the ultracote covering. I stripped them, glassed and painted them. They are installed on the Horizon cub, so the match is perfect, and the water handling was much better than with the Great Planes ARF floats.

I see the 1/4 scale floats are also coming from H9....and are fiberglass.

I'm at work so I don't have the measurements, sorry.

I had the Golberg 36" floats. It is good to glass them as the sand /gravel /rocks on the beach will eat the bottom out of them in time......
