The privately operated amphibious Murphy Rebel was on a flight from Kingston Airport (CYGK) to Loughborough Lake. The pilot received a normal gear up indication and landed on the water. As the aircraft decelerated a partially extended nose gear contacted the water causing the aircraft to nose over. The uninjured pilot was assisted by boaters.
