Narrative:
The pilot was approximately 50 feet above the water approaching the lake preparing to land when he saw the wires. In an effort to clear the wires, the pilot immediately added full power and back pressure on the yoke. The wires subsequently went over the top of the floats and caught onto both float struts, eventually breaking free from the right side but remaining entangled on the left float strut and pulling the airplane down. The pilot then pulled the nose up just prior to impacting the water, resulting in substantial damage to the airplane.


Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to maintain clearance with the powerlines on final approach which resulted in a hard landing. A factor contributing the to accident were the powerlines.
