The pilot stated that he was performing a water landing and believes the left sponson contacted the water about the same time as the hull. The airplane water-looped, bending both sponsons and the left wing tip. Additionally, the left side of the airplane’s nose and left fuselage at the pilot entry station were wrinkled and bent.
The pilot did not maintain directional control during a water touchdown.
