There is a Sponson Tribian 3/4 seat Amphibian project.

and there is an article about it in the latest and sadly the last Air Enthusiast for Sept/Oct 2007. Page 26.
The Navarro Naiad is there too, with 3-views of both.

There was also a three-seater, twin-engine pusher named the Air Coupe designed in 1946

Wow,great find Schneiderman,many thanks.

 

[Schneiderman]

Also for completeness here is Navarro's drawing of the Naiad

 

[Schneiderman]

The undercarriage for both the Air Coupe and Naiad described in patent GB575172
The drawing of the land aircraft may suggest that there was a third Navarro aircraft project in 1946, similar to the Air Coupe but with a single engine and tail wheel.
