P2 SEAPLANE RAILWAY SYSTEM
A smart pilot knows that leaving a seaplane parked in the water may eventually prove to be very costly. Floats get dirty and corrosion starts to set in. Even worse yet, the plane is susceptible to being upset by strong winds or waves.
Having your plane out of the water and tied down securely on shore is one of your best forms of insurance. That is where our time-tested Seaplane Railway System comes into the picture.

Dolly Modification and Remote Control
Depending on the make and model of floats, some need to be supported across the float keels. No problem for our system! A very simple and inexpensive modification can be made to accommodate these floats.
A very popular option is the Remote Control. Adding one to your system, whether now or later, means the ultimate in convenience!
Systems To Fit Most Seaplanes- Standard and Heavy Duty Models -
We've used years of water flying experience to come up with a design for a rail system that meets the specific needs of the seaplane pilot. The final result is a proven product that is able to accommodate a variety of aircraft and can be installed in a wide range of applications. Our system has a reputation of being very reliable, easy to operate and virtually maintenance free.
There are two systems to choose from. Our most common model, the Standard System, handles everything from a J-3 Cub to Cessna 206... and everything in between. For aircraft such as the DHC Beaver, Otter or Cessna Caravan, we can custom-build a Heavy-Duty System for you.
Each Starter Package is comprised of 40' of track, electric motor, winch, electric brake, cable tensioner and seaplane dolly. You have the option of galvanized or stainless steel cable. Additional 10' track sections can be added to customize your system to virtually any length you require.
The wide-stance tracks are laid directly on the ground, lake or river bottom and can be supported by adjustable track stands where retaining walls or banks are traversed. Rocky or muddy shorelines aren't a problem as the system is designed to handle them all, as well as seawalls and inclines up to a 20 degree grade.
The exclusive 2-way Power Winch provides full pulling power in both directions, simplifying launching and removing your aircraft from the water. This feature allows y o u t o s t o p t h e d o l l y anywhere along the tracks
with safe, positive control. A powerful (110/220 volt) electric motor is standard equipment and optional larger motors can be ordered if required. Finally, we use high-quality, name-brand industrial motors and components to insure that you years of reliable service.
