Build a biplane, have machine gun? You're way overcomplicating this. With the money building a biplane would require you can buy a powered paragliding kit, and have some money left over. It'll likely be safer than a home-built biplane too. Since you only need to puncture inflatables, a regular hunting rifle would be sufficient, no need to take legal risks with a machine gun. As you're going out over water get an inflatable vest and an EPIRB, both are cheap items. If you end up in the soup you can use the EPIRB to summon the coast guard, and for a change they can rescue an actual human. If you want to be really sophisticated, add some night vision equipment.
