I own the very same plane and have used it on floats. It works fine with twopeople ,full fuel and fifty lbs. of lugage. Very forgiving and a beautiful and economical machine. You need to use common sense like with any machine as you learn it’s strengths. I flew the Arctic with mine.

Hello, I have a 1964 Cessna 172E with a 0300 145hp continental. Is there an STC for my plane with that motor for the floats and, have you ever heard of having a floatplane with that engine size, I know it is a little small for a floatplane application

have Cessna C175A “Skylark”, and would like floats, or better still, amphibs.
