Way more, I assume. A BFR runs around $50 (assuming you own the plane). You
can throw in an IPC for an additional $30 or so, maybe cheaper. Assuming you
need to rent a seaplane, it would probably cost at least $1,500 for the
time, training and checkride to get the SES.

I just did an IPC with a local CFI. Normally I ride with the local DE
every 6 months because I'm a CFI and I like to know what he likes. So
he sends me to this guy with a CFII ticket that was still wet. We flew
for 2 hours and the guy proceeded to charge me $200!!! (We flew in my
plane). He said that was with the "professional discount" because I'm
a CFI too. Check the price before had.
