This 1981 Cessna 180K (N20605) presents as a well-maintained floatplane currently configured on wheels, with 6,199 total airframe hours and a 1,967-hour SMOH Continental engine paired with a 380-hour SMOH propeller. The aircraft has undergone a fresh annual/100-hour inspection and features new paint rated as "10 exterior" with no corrosion noted. The interior shows fabric seats in good condition, along with practical modifications including extended baggage, aft jack screw access panels, and a locking 10" tailwheel.

Equipped with EDO 2960 floats (Kenmore float lockers) and Bush STOL capabilities, this Skywagon offers versatility for backcountry operations. Notable upgrades include new seat tracks and a bladder-type long-range fuel system. The seller mentions availability of additional upgrade parts (for separate purchase) including titanium landing gear, Robertson STOL kit, 14" tailwheel, and a forthcoming 285HP PPonk engine conversion (projected completion July 2025). With a useful load of 1,306 lbs and a gross weight increase to 3,190 lbs via STC, this 180K combines utility with recent refurbishments. Serious buyers are directed to inquire directly with the owner.
