about Krucker Floats
My name is Jeff Bell. I live in Navarre Florida and have been flying since 1980. I received my
pilots license in 1989 and continued my education in receiving my IFR rating and CFI rating.
I began flying ultralights in 1996. I fell in love with my first ultralight when I was 12 years old.
A neighbor had one and took me for a flight. I was hooked.
I bought my first ultralight in 1996. Sold it and bought a Flying Inflatable Boat. Since we live
at the beach, it made sense to fly off the water.
I met Micheal Percy in 2007. He has been a true friend and partner. We have joined forces
in selling and teaching ultralights in the Florida panhandle and Texas. www.XLFlying.com

Krucker floats are made from 5052 aluminum, the same used for pontoon boats, weighing only 93 lbs mounted. Using the same material that boats are made of, with all welded seams, NO rivets so t don't leak. With three chambers per float they combine to over 1800 lbs of floatation. The floats are coated with a plastic bottom to allow for beaching of the aircraft, without damaging the float. If you don't have access to a beach, don't worry. You can launch from any boat acess point, grassy lake access, or intercostal access.
Just roll down to the water!

I wonder if that's made from carbon fiber or just aluminum fittings? I've never seen something like that mate. You can literally take that anywhere, but how high can the aircraft hardware go up-- 100 feet more or less? I'm just really curious.
