R44 on floats
Robinson R44 on floats -fixed floats like these reduce cruise speed by 10 knots, owing to the additional drag. However, they are for landing on water, not just for emergencies...

It has been suggested that is you wish to replace the floats it is more cost effective to buy a full new undercarriage rather than try and remove the floats from the R44.

Certainly looks cuddly!
