Four Stroke for Float Plane
 
Can any one recommend a good four stroke for my Sig Kadet on floats? Its need to have good power and excellent reliability especially at idle. BTW this is going to be my first four stroke so it need to be easy to use.

Thanks

OS.70 or a Saito.72 Both are very good engines and should be plenty for your Kadet, even on floats.

Hello; We have two of those here with OS 70 surpass', work great.
another fellow has an old Enya 60 4-stroke in one, with flaps, that works good too.
My personal choice would be the Saito 72, because I don't already have one, or maybe one of those RCV 58 sleeve valve engines. I'm sure a Saito 65 would do it too.
I hope you have lots fo fun with your plane, whatever engine you decide on.
