I also like the Beriev Be-103 amphib because in order to land on water it just plunges it's quite conventionally shaped fuselage down into it and then balances using its wings. Apparently the fuel economy isn't that great but then again it's an six seater (or pilot plus 545 kilos of cargo) and it's been designed by the Russians for use on rivers and lakes in Siberia so I bet you'll be hard pressed to find a more serviceable amphib around.
