I was wondering, does one require a seaplane rating to operate and

I believe you do not, but a search of the regs to prove that has so far
proven fruitless for me.

Can anyone cite the reg that *requires* you to posses a sea rating to
operate on water? In the same vein, which reg *requires* you to posses an
instrument rating to operate in IMC?

Happy Flying!
