Is it an airplane? Yes.

Does it have an engine? Yes.

Is it land-based? Yes.

Are you the sole manipulator of the flight controls? Yes.

Sounds like Airplane Single-Engine Land PIC time to me.

Log it.

So if you added an extra engine and some floats, we might have some issues

If it's an airplane and you're flying it, how could you not be the PIC?
