This 1954 Piper Super Cub PA-18/L-21 (N27347) presents as a well-maintained amphibious/floatplane conversion with 2,642 total airframe hours and 661 hours since major engine overhaul. The aircraft is powered by a Lycoming O-320-A2B 150 HP engine with new cylinders installed in 1999, paired with both a McCauley "borer" climb prop (currently installed) and a McCauley cruise prop for land operations. The floatplane configuration includes EDO 2000 floats described as "tight, like new," along with Aero Ski 2000 skis with rigging, though wheels and brakes are not currently installed. A two-wheel trailer is included for launching and ground handling.
Originally rebuilt in 1977 from a military L-21 airframe with 1,828 hours, this Super Cub underwent another comprehensive rebuild and upgrade in 2009 by renowned Cub restorer Scott Prescott. Notable features include an extended L-21 baggage compartment with a dedicated fishing pole tube, ICOM VHF radio (118-136 MHz) with intercom, and an ELT. The aircraft's gross weight was increased to 1,750 lbs via STC in 1977. Currently hangared in Saranac Lake, NY, it shows no known major damage history and comes with complete logbooks. An annual inspection is pending in April 2025. The exterior and interior both feature a red color scheme, with an empty weight of 1,085 lbs on wheels.
