SeareyLSX

The Searey LSX, a newer and more refined model of the Searey 'Classic'. This particular version is powered with the Rotax 914, 115 hp Turbo engine and is equipped with a glass panel. Major new features of the LSX include Vortex generators on the wings, increased washout at the wings (both of which make the aircraft extremely hard to stall), a redesigned cockpit interior (very plush), and structural enhancements necessary to meet the ASTM standards in preparation for the SLSA category.

I've seen a few Volmers try to operate out of the Oshkosh seaplane base and wasn't impressed at all. I have over a 1,000 hrs operating Searey's in the past 12 yrs. We don't recommend operating in more then a 1 foot chop, but HAVE operated in up to a max of 2 ft. Water does not go over the canopies unless one is on step and shoves the stick to the panel. Typically with higher waves, we have more wind which just shortens the time on water to start with.

I would like to see this aircraft operating on some choppy water. Be interested to see how much water it makes over the top of the canopy. I would also like to see it coming up on the step in some chop as well. I operated a volmer Sportsman for many years and the free board is pretty good on the VJ22 but accessing water conditions was the real hard part, at 1000ft most water looks great. But its not like that when you get down into it.
