This is crazy
If you notice there are no water rudders, and it handled perfectly, this thing has such a big rudder that it did whatever I wanted.
Thanks

Pretty Cool.
If you ever get any REAL floats, don't do the concrete/gravel taxi trick. Fortunately, GeeBee floats are somewhat resistant to damage from that. Of course, with REAL floats, your takeoff run would have been 5 feet.
I liked the tail touch, and your landings are pretty good. The important part is: You're having fun.
Ain't Float Flyin' GREAT???
