Mike Cohen, I have the same problem. I have an 81" wingspan Cub on floats. Electric .46 size motor with 5000 ma four cell. Had several places to fly near Saratoga Springs, NY when the lakes weren't frozen. Skis in winter, floats in spring and wheels in summer. Now living in the Villages in central Florida, water all over the place and no place to fly. We have lots of ponds in the Villages that would be good places. Clear shorelines, trees not real close but illegal to fly there. The shorelines of most of the public lakes are swamps etc.
