76,If you haven't bought the Seawind yet,I would recomend you take a look at the Northstar by BUSA.I just can't imagine how a plane with less than 700sq.in. ever ended up weighing between 10.25-12.25 lbs.The Northstar weighs about 6.5 lbs. and has 750 sq. in. area!Of course,you'll have to build it,but it's one of the best water planes ever designed and just perfect for electric conversion.Also, that pond had better be at least 150'long for a plane with that high a wing loading.I'm sory if I sound so pessemistic about the Seawind,but it seems at least 3lbs. too heavy to be a good flier.
