The pilot receiving instruction did not obtain the proper touch down point during a water landing resulting in a bounced landing. The CFI stated he failed to initiate a go-around in sufficient time, which resulted in an in-flight collision with trees, water, and a subsequent nose down of the seaplane in the water.
Probable Cause: The pilot receiving instruction failure to achieve the proper touch down point during a water landing, and the CFI's improper supervision and failure to initiate a go-around in sufficient time to avoid and in-flight collision with trees, water, and subsequent nose down.
