Seawind choose Continental

The Seawind Company has selected the Continental IO-550-N to complete certification of the Seawind 300C amphibian. Full Authority Digital Engine Controls (FADEC) will be available as an option. Company President, Richard Silva, said the selection was based on the Continental engine meeting and exceeding the criteria of a smooth running 6 cylinder 300 horsepower engine. The IO-550-N produces 310 H.P. with no increase in weight.
Seawind are working with SAGEM (formally RNAV) to provide the glass cockpit for the 300C, the fastest amphibian in the world having achieved 174kts top speed.The certified 300C is due to complete flight testing and certification later this year.
