Anyone who has been on the net long enough to recall the era of the
fish knows who I am, and why I don't post my last name anymore.

talking about an occurrence that happened to a few SeaHawks ( I have one)
and the cause was not anywhere close to the reasons he sited.

Really? What cause, exactly, did I cite? All I recall stating is
that portions of the wing were lost in flight. So were they or
weren't they?

Mine has 300 hrs and never had a problem.

How many hours did the ones that had the problem have?

Some of our owners have installed struts between the wings - .

And you believe this fixes/prevents the problem why? FEA? Long term
cycle tests? What IS the cause of the problem? I've heard a lot of
conjecture, and have not repeated any of it because none of it sounded
convincing.

P.S. they can be insured - like the Lake and all amphibs, it's not cheap -
what is today?

What company will write hull coverage? Name it, please. I was not
able to find one that would write hull, at any price. The Lake is
expensive to insure, but it can be insured for hull.
