About the Robinson R44 Clipper II
The Robinson R44 Clipper II is the float-equipped version of the fuel-injected Raven II. It pairs the 245 hp Lycoming IO-540, 2,500 lb gross weight and hydraulic controls of the Raven II with fixed utility floats or pop-out emergency floats for over-water operation.
The added power of the Raven II engine makes the Clipper II well suited to heavier amphibious utility, tour and survey roles, and it is the most capable factory float configuration in the R44 line. Used examples typically sell between $250,000 and $750,000.
Buy it if you fly coastal, island or lake routes and want fuel-injection performance; choose the standard Raven II if you don't need water capability.

Buying a Used Robinson R44 Clipper II
Every Robinson R44 Clipper II faces a mandatory 2,200-hour overhaul, so the single biggest factor in used price is how much time remains before that overhaul is due — a fresh-overhaul airframe can be worth a large share of the $150,000 overhaul cost more than one approaching its limit.
What to check before buying
- Time to overhaul — hours and years remaining to the 2,200-hour limit; this dominates resale value more than total time.
- Logbook completeness — continuous, gap-free maintenance records; missing logs cut value and complicate financing.
- Damage history — any prior accident, hard landing or blade strike; cross-check the registration against accident databases.
- Avionics — a glass panel vs steam gauges materially changes price.
- Pre-buy inspection — always commission an independent inspection by a type-experienced mechanic before money changes hands.
