In summary of the advantages over conventional seaplanes, the Ocean amphibious and 'straight' seaplanes will:

• Double wave-height capability to enable safe operations in common coastal sea conditions

• Increase the number of usable tidal marinas and docks by a factor of five 

• ​Increase load capacity and cruise efficiency to typically double range-with-payload

• Reduce the cost of seaplane ownership and life-cycled cost per seat-mile by up to 49% on tropical saltwater

  

The Ocean seaplanes are configured to reproduce the best operating qualities of both flying-boats and floatplanes, in terms of  practical docking features, access/egress and loading features, and wide-ranging details and ergonomic features to maximise operator and user experiences.  The Ocean designs are meticulously specified in response to extensive seaplane-user engagements including detailed studies by the most prominent seaplane operating companies.

   

To suit different types of operation, the Oceans will be offered with options for cockpit-managed actuated wing-fold and different power systems for water thruster options.  Zero-emission primary power system options will be offered in all aircraft.
