That is one nice looking flying boat! (I've never heard of it and I love flying boats! Checking YouTube for videos now!) Looks like it has a really high length the beam ratio like the later Martin planes (especially the Seamaster.) Love the retractable floats and it appears to have full span flaps with flaperons. Did this have STOL capability? This will look good sitting on Lake Winnebago!
 
To be honest, I dont know what it could do. I was looking for the Late' 28 which was a mail plane, and came across this and well, i fell in love.. My gods what a beast. She's beautiful.
 
A.F. Scrub did a very nice model back 2010:
