This is just too much fun doing water take-offs and landings.. It draws a lot of attention and questions from other boaters everytime I fly it....It's electric and made out of foam... it's modelled after the real seawind. It has a 39" wingspan and flies about 40mph on lithium polymer battery for approx 15min.. The kit is available from towerhobbies.com and cost $99.99. you must then buy a motor and speed control and receiver and 3 servos and a transmitter.. total cost is about 300 bucks.. I had 300 bucks worth of fun with it on the first day although there's not much room for it on our little 16' fourwinns bowrider

Looks like a bunch of fun. You haven't crashed it yet?
