Can you be more specific? Did you get the pilot's name? Did you get the tail number? Did you get an aircraft type?
Because it wasn't me. What I am finding out is that most people who dislike seaplanes (like Chip) don't know the difference between one seaplane and another. Everywhere a seaplane shows up people think it's me. It's good advertising for sure, and I appreciate it!
It is nice to see that the community is opening their eyes to the fact that there are a lot of seaplanes around and that they can operate safely, and coexist even in a crazy environment like a boat race. I'm assuming the seaplane didn't have an accident or get ticketed for doing anything illegal? Glad everything worked out fine. Glad he had the sense to not land during the race (good decision) and glad he didn't destroy his airplane by coming into the docks with the high dock posts, but chose the beach instead!
