There used to be a seaplane operator in Pauggs Bay. Don't know what Covid did to that operation, but it would be fun to have him pick you up at Acadia. There's probably somebody at Moultonborough Airport. You could probably make it a lesson, not just a ride, so your brother can drive and maybe make the landing. Send a PM to seaplane pilot.

I actually found a thread on the seaplane operator a few minutes after this. iShoot had him land at his breakwater and loved it. I just called, though, and he's selling the plane in the next few weeks.

He said there's a new pilot starting a similar operation up soon, but I think Hanson Cove and Arcadia's setup is too narrow/populated/cluttered to get picked up there, so I called Emerson and penciled in a sunset flight in June.

I told them I'd confirm in the next day or two as I finished my research, though, if anyone has other ideas. 3...sizable dudes, so no Red Baron!
