It depends what you are looking for.  I happen to like the Otter from here.  If you are looking for something different look over at Project Skyworks.  They are making the jet powered amphibian, the Beriev Be-200.  Their website is http://project-skyworks.vze.com.

My Volpar On Amphibs isn't too bad if I say so Myself... As for the Berriev.... COOL!! now I can take that one out of my "To do" pile.

Your Frigate is rather sweet too.   Still one of my favourites and I wish you'd take another look at it.

I've been rattleling that thought around myself... the original was a challenge to myself to see if I could make a complete flyable aircraft in one day ( I did it too )... thats why it's pretty basic. If I do a new one it will be considerably more work.

Each new one is considerably more work, for me.  :-)
Seriously, it is a fine concept.  I particularly like the ventilated stepless hull.  One of those 'so obvious, I could have thought of that' but, of course, I never did.  :-)

I hope you do have another go at it.  Just remember us FS2002 users....

Without a doubt, all of Mike Stone's aircraft are contenders. Have a look :

Especially the Goose.
