Ok, when I'm dreaming, I want a deHavilland Beaver on amphib floats
with all the Kenmore mods. But lets be practical here, I haven't won the
lottery.
Is there a plane out there that:
- is on floats (preferably amphibs, but I know they add a lot to the cost)
- can carry two people plus camping gear plus fuel (say 750 pounds plus
fuel?)
- has a decent range
- has a transponder so I can fly across the US-Canada border without
jumping through hoops
- preferably side by side seating
- preferably a four seater, although a two seater with a big baggage area
would probably do
- costs less than $50K

Flying is the perfect vocation for a man who wants to feel like a boy, but
not for one who still is.
Proably not. My murphy rebel meets all your wants except for the price
and transponder A set of airworthy amphib floats is going to cost at
least $25k that doesn't leave much for the rest of the plane.
