Frequently Asked Questions — Seawind
What is the Seawind 3000 amphibious aircraft?
The Seawind 3000 is a composite four-seat amphibian with a unique rear-mounted pusher engine blended into the vertical fin, reducing cabin noise. It carries 900 lbs payload and cruises above 200 KTAS — one of the fastest homebuilt amphibians. The airframe is designed for 20G impact strength. Kit production was suspended in 2002, so aircraft are available only on the used market.
Is a used Seawind 3000 worth buying?
Completed Seawinds are rare and command premium prices given the discontinued kit production. Build quality varies (2,000+ hours build time typical), so a thorough pre-buy inspection by a composite-experienced mechanic is essential. The Super Seawind variant uses turboprop power for even higher performance. For pilots wanting a fast four-seat amphibian, the Seawind offers unique capability — but parts and factory support are limited given the small fleet.
