The M7 combines the performance of an agile airplane and a high speed boat. Positive G aerobatic maneuvers are possible. On the water, the tri-hull configuration is stable at the dock and the deep V hull with dual spray rails will run clean with little spray. The engine is outfitted with a cooling fan to allow continuous water operation at either high or low speeds.
The M7 Airplane design has developed from our operational experience with the Mermaid amphibian. If an airplane sleeps at night and dreams, the M7 is the dream.
Meticulous engineering demonstrates that a high performance amphibian is possible. The goal is two-fold: an airplane that will be faster, more comfortable, quieter, more agile, and sexier than a Cessna 182, and a boat that can run smoothly and continuously on the water at speeds up to 50 knots, with the ability to takeoff and land in 2 foot chop.
We are collaborating with several people on this exciting and innovative project. Please contact Rick McWilliams is you would like to be involved.
