Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Short S.1 Cockle was a single seat sport monoplane flying boat, with a novel monocoque duralumin hull. It was underpowered and so did not leave the water easily, but it proved that watertight and corrosion resistant hulls could be built from metal.From about 1921 Oswald Short had been thinking about the construction of seaplane floats and flying boat hulls made from metal, specifically duralumin, rather than the traditional wood. The latter always suffered from water retention and did not last well in the tropics.
