What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
N905JS departed kgif on 08/08/2021 at approximately 1500 to lake fannie in Winter Haven, FL. After 10-15 minutes of flying the pilot made an approach downwind along the north shore of the lake heading west, turned south on base and east on final, and performed a sea landing in the approximate center of lake fannie. The pilot stated that the water was calm, the weather was clear, and he landed smoothly. The pilot proceeded to shut down the engine and the plane slowed in the water. The pilot stated that there was possibly a bump at the right float after which the float sank. This caused the right wing to dip into the water. The plane came to a stop and began to roll over into the water until it completely capsized in the lake. The pilot was the only one on board the aircraft and was not injured. This was the pilot's first and only time landing on lake fannie.
