Yeah they definitely would eventually. Probably a white upper surface to reflect the sun, and the family crest etc

Ah, they probably will want to paint it, if for anything, a seaplane gets covered with water. In this case, probably very briny water from the sea. And that water dries out leaving salt crystals in the wood, damaging it. So a coat of paint will keep that to a minimum.
