Registered just days before this picture.

Airliners and JetPhotos may eventually have this plane in their database, but they don't yet ... lagging behind Airplane Life as usual ...

N23BT Cessna 310 Seaplane

OK well, Sky King he's not. This chap was flying from Monterey, CA to Hilo, HI. He made it all the way except for the last 13 miles. Ran out of fuel. That crosswind component will getcha every time. Maybe he should have put some, "mileage enhancing pellets" in his tip tanks. Pilot is OK; discharged from hospital. As the saying goes, any landing you can swim away from is a good one. An ironic twist is that this guy once won United's "Halfway to Hawaii" game. USCG video that has no audio.
