Thanks. I will definitely get some floats for the spring. The lake near my house creates an endless flying field where noone could/would complain either in snow on the ice or on the water. I guess it's a good thing that I have a boat that can be easily dropped in the water that has a powerful motor.

Do floats require more pulling power to get the plane out of the water. I have a few different engines but for the skis I am using an OS .46LA. This engine is a dog but skis require even less power than wheels as the plane slides nicely on top of the snow. I am going to put my OS .46AX back on it. This is a great engine and the plane screamed with that engine installed.
