I got this from a friend of mine that lives on the Oregon Coast. I have never seen anything remotely like it. Any thoughts from the group. It looks scary to me.

Toby,
I’m interested in buying this Kolb and am wondering if you know anyone that owns one, especially that is an anphib like this one. I’d like to chat with them….

Doesn't look like there is much Kolb left in that one.
I would not touch it.

Wow that looks really neet. I think I see a Kolb Firestar under there. The hull seems to be designed to keep spray from the prop. The cockpit and forward folding wind screen is nice. I would want to see it takeoff and land on water. It even has one of the old Kolb trailers. Get some one that knows Kolbs to check it out but go for it.

While it does look interesting at first glance, I would wonder about its "sea worthiness", not to mention of what its like to fly. I don't see that the gear legs, and wheels move out of the way. I wonder what the effect of sticking one of those suckers in the water if there was a bit of chop on the water. Is it still a ground loop? Maybe a bit of a cross wind.? Lets see- 14 foot wings compared to a 2 foot at its widest, bottom that is most likely shaped into a wide Vee? I also notice that there is no N number. It looks like a lot of work with very little thought. I could be prejudiced since I live in the Desert.?????Larry

Look at the gear legs as they go into the cage. It looks like they could be retractable. There might be an issue with this being a LSA with retractable. Some manufactures call the gear repositionable and the FAA goes along with LSA. The lack of N number could be a bigger issue but?
