In Canada it's the pilot.

Let's say the State of X is the water owner. In CA, the pilot can land
anywhere. Without penalty?

In US? Where is the jurisdiction enforced?

At least in the Midwest US, most of the lakes are controlled by the US Army
Corp of Engineers. They maintain one of more offices in every state around
here.

Since you're not really a pilot or live in the US, I guess you wouldn't
know.

But maybe you could look it up on Google sometime.

At lease it proves you can run Google,

but it's a much better example on just another one of your many lies.

FL here, ACoE, Water Management Districts, some FL DEP, State, it's a
mess.

What got me interested was a poster who was claiming he liked the Icon
A5 which is built around the corner from me.

http://www.iconaircraft.com/

The statement was he thought it would be neat to be able to fly from
lake to lake or whatever, the idea of freedom of access to many
waterbodies (the sports, shores, camping, etc). Sounded nice to me as
well but practical?

I don't know what the Corp's policy is today, but they do have regs that
forbid air delivery on Corp property and lakes, without a permit granted
days in advance. Unless it was an established seaplane base.

I have seen ultralights at the lakes on floats, but have no idea if any have
been stopped or fined.

As in parcel or goods delivery?

Same here.
