No, as enticing as the water is, the Teal is preserved and tied down for the winter. It's not nice to takeoff the water in air which is below freezing, and splash the airplane. It instantly freezes all over the airframe, windshield, and prop.

My job was to be sure that the pods stayed on this: (they did!).



It was a lovely +3C here, though it is supposed to be -16C tonight. It's going to be brisk, as I have to be in the lake, in a suit, at 8 tomorrow morning.
