The private pilot was departing from a remote lake in a float-equipped airplane. During the initial climb, the airplane's right float struck the shoreline of the lake. The airplane subsequently nosed over on the bank of the lake, and sustained substantial damage to the wings, fuselage, and empennage. The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical anomalies with the airplane.
Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to maintain clearance during takeoff, which resulted in an in-flight collision with terrain.
