4 Place composite amphibian kits

[SLO Flight]

I'm looking for some current feedback on overall design and quality of
parts. I'm partial to a flying boat vs. float plane.

Kits I've been researching to this point are:

SeaWind 3000 - Not building kits anymore but there projects for sale
SeaStar - No new news letters since 2002?
SeaStorm Z4 - No completed planes in the US.

I'm looking for an aircraft that can realistically be operated in
sal****er that is a true 4-place amphibious aircraft.

Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

Check these: http://www.hydroplane.ru/

I flew them many hours - nice machine. Though needs multiengine rating in
US.

Cheers,

You could check out these guys http://www.creativeflight.com/ but
personally I think something like a murphy moose on montana 3500
amphibs is much more practical

Also for your possible consideration, the "AeroCat" from Creative
Flight in Ontario Canada:

Looks really neat, with some very nice features. I'd definitely
consider it if I was starting from scratch today.

The guy who used to be the Northeast US distributor for Storm is in my
EAA chapter (1310). He says it was very difficult to deal with the
Italians. Difficult to get answers from them. They didn't even tell
him he was being replaced. He showed up at an airshow ready to work,
and he was introduced to his replacement.
