Does anyone have a picture of the plane that sits by the little pond by the vendor buildings at Sun n Fun. It's the one that's built on an aluminum boat, high wing, pusher that one would think is a joke except it really did fly at some point. ? Thanks Knickc

Google "Sunshine Clipper" and click images.

There was an article in Sport Aviation it once upon a time. Search the back issues, or ask Mac.

Sunshine Clipper (http://www.planeandpilotmag.com/aircraft/international-aircraft-directory/homebuiltkitbuilt-aircraft/sunshine-clipper.html)? "
This creation was born in November 1987, growing out of the hull of a 1948 Orlando Clipper. And yes, it really flies. "
