On the sea .......... well that's the most direct answer.  Grin Grin Grin

Try Juneau Harbour if you like Alaska..... Round Seattle you have Kenmore Air Harbour and Seattle Seaplanes. There's plenty of other water runways. The other alternative is to goto an airport that you know is near the coast and slew to the water.

Start in the water - otherwise you crash into it. Choose a lake or sea start - they are fairly easy to spot in in the create flight menu - It's worth noting the engine controls.

& don't forget to move around the boat - into the different rooms. It's quite a creation! I've never seen anything quite like it. (Ctrl/Shift & Backspace/Enter combinations - see Keyboard commands under Help)

i found that if you slew towards the water, it puts you right on top of it and so if you 'unslew', you crash. try climbing slightly by slewing slowly, the it should work, did for me Cheesy

Good info - thanks - but I tried slewing (to/fro/up down/)  to what looked like the perfect position - right in the water at a good level - & crashed on all of my (about) 6 attempts. The only way I could succeed was to start as a float situation.

If you can give more details about what height to 'drop' or 'rise' from that would be a great help!

Seattle's Seaplanes my man Cheesy.

High Flight Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of earth And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings; Sunward I've climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth Of sun-split clouds - and done a hundred things You have not dreamed of - wheeled and soared and swung High in the sunlit silence. Hov'ring there I've chased the shouting wind along, and flung My eager craft through footless halls of air. Up, up the long delirious, burning blue, I've topped the windswept heights with easy grace Where never lark, or even eagle flew - And, while with silent lifting mind I've trod The high untresspassed sanctity of space, Put out my hand and touched the face of God.&&

Well here is another way to move that old boat in the water. Go to the MAP  on the World Tab and drag it into the water using your mouse. Works find for me.

After slewing hit F1 to put you at ground/water level. Always worked for me.
