THE PILOT REPORTED THAT THE FLIGHT WAS UNEVENTFUL UNTIL IT WAS ABOUT 5 MILES NORTHWEST OF ST PETERSBURG, FL. AT ABOUT THAT POINT, THE PILOT CONTACTED THE TOWER FOR LANDING AND ADVISED THAT THE PLANE WAS LOW ON FUEL. SHORTLY THEREAFTER, THE ENGINE LOST POWER. THE AIRCRAFT WAS DITCHED IN SHALLOW WATER AT NIGHT IN AN INLAND WATERWAY. DURING AN EXAMINATION, ABOUT 4 OUNCES OF FUEL WAS FOUND IN THE LEFT TANK AND THE RIGHT TANK WAS FOUND EMPTY.
