Looks like it is quite salvagable, plus it is in shallow fresh water. Salt water would be bad. Just pull it to shore. The wings are relatively easy to remove, even with only two people, after draining the wing fuel tanks.

As much as I despise DEI... my best flight instructor nearly 40 years ago was beautiful leggy blonde. My wife took one look at her and made me get a different instructor. But I did have to go back to her for my spin training because she was the only instructor at the flight school who was qualified to teach aerobatic maneuvers. She was a competitive aerobatic pilot.
