As it goes on to say that "the aircraft entered the water at a high rate of descent" makes you wonder just how much rotor RPM existed.
Previous TSB reports state that it impacted with 20g.

Another important question which comes to light after verifying that the floats were "armed" is why they failed to deploy?
