You glass guys have most likely run into a set of these floats, very
popular with the SuperCub guys.
Well a little big for Kitfox but these are my neighbour's product and
becoming very popular.

http://www.clamarfloats.com

It has been very popular so far and now a 3500 will be dressing up the
Murphy Mooses this year. Look for him as Sun n Fun if you are going.
After seeing the results,I would say that these have proven to be one of the
toughest floats on the market now.

I flew in there on Monday this week with 16 inches now - now it about 95%
gone.

And before you ask , he wil not be making anything under 2200s unless you
are willing to pay 25k for striaght floats. Personally I think there is
market for a 1400 to 1600 float for LSA stuff and there are some new ones to
surface in the next year or so.
That being said the Aerocet 1100s a decent float but could affoard to be a
little bigger displacement on the heavier Kitfoxes.

What would you pay for a set of floats ?
1400s straight or amphib ?
