          If a replacement fuel tank is needed, order the Sullivan 14oz Slant
            Type Flextank (SULQ1742). Some minor trimming and modifications may
            be required.

          Robart makes tri-gear retracts (ROBQ1622) especially for this model.
          If using these, an Air Kit (ROBQ2307) and Air Line Quick Disconnect
          (ROBQ2395) are also required.
         * Some of the Robart Retracts have required some slight modification
         to properly fit into the wheel wells on the Sea wind. Go to ROBQ1622.
          This airplane can be flown off water with the optional retracts
            installed. The amphibian nosewheel cover must be taped in place
            with clear box tape. The retracts MUST be disabled during water
            take offs and landings.
          The aircraft cannot take off from land and then land on water or vice
            versa.
