Narrative:The wind was calm and glassy water conditions prevailed as the pilot approached from the east, intending to land on the western half of the lake. Using visual cues and reducing power to increase his rate of descent, the pilot's delayed landing flare resulted in the airplane impacting the water in a nose low attitude. The entire aircraft sustained structural and water damage, with the exception of the empennage and tail section.
Probable Cause: The pilot's improper flare. Factors contributing to the accident included the pilot's improper approach and the glassy water condition.
