I have been looking at the Sea Cruiser ads for years , always telling myself I should get me one. Out of production eh? Oh well maybe in another life.
Actually the Sea Cruiser looks a lot like an old Ken Willard free flight design called the "Drake". The Sea cruiser differs from the "Drake by having three vertical fins whereas the "Drake" had two. I enlarged a Drake once to a 25 sized model. It flew fine but I could never get it off the water. It did'nt have enough forward bouyancy in the hull and it always tried to play submarine when the power was applied. Sure was a pretty plane though.
