Beavertail Stealth 2000

I created this video with the KZbin Video Editor ( / editor )

[@outdoorsguy4]

Picked one of these up used a couple years back.. I love it. It is the most versatile boat I’ve had the chance to own. I put a trolling motor on the back of mine, shot many ducks and caught many fish from it!

[@martinarcher5280]

How does the motor mount work?

[@bowhntr83]

Nice video. I was looking at kayaks but I may get one of these. I need something to go down a creek with my bow hunting gear and also be able to haul out a big buck.

[@martinarcher5280]

I love mine. A little harder to steer, with heavy weight, up front. You should be able to get a big buck, in it, pretty easy.

[@johnnyhernandez4537]

just buy it you won't regret

[@totaldla]

Great video! They are a great basic, safe, duck boat/fishing platform.

[@martinarcher5280]

Sure are. Thanks !

[@TheWrightsTrapping]

I got a stealth 2000 I use for ducking and fishing. they are great boats.

[@martinarcher5280]

I agree. Love mine!

[@angrykillerdeer9024]

Martin, I know your video is older but if you still have your stealth 2000, please drop me a line and I'll send you a picture of the Kart that my Wife and I built for my stealth 2000 12 ft., I love my stealth otter 2000, I've owned mine for 20 years and she's still the best boat that I'll ever own and you can't sink them either, trust me I've tried.

[@martinarcher5280]

I would love some pics. It is a great boat, I agree.

[@engineerpete7]

How are they paddling in a headwind of about 10mph?

[@martinarcher5280]

Beaver Tail boat makes it easy

[@totaldla]

Nice video! Loved the footage of paddling through the shallows. And I loved the stability demonstration. I've been using one for a while and like it.

[@martinarcher5280]

Thanks for your input. Thanks for watching.

[@johnnyhernandez4537]

i just bought one used 2 months ago I've been fishing with it twice and it works great 2 people can comfortably fish from it standing up no problem or seating down

[@Bagndux88]

How much did you weigh when you made this video???

[@martinarcher5280]

210lbs, in just street clothes . I believe it is rated for 550lbs, but don't quote me.

[@pungobriar2826]

Howdy. I'm a big guy, weigh 280 and I was wondering how well it tracks with the wind on the beam or into the wind when paddling. On my canoe my weight causes the bow to raise up and gives me problems tracking in a crosswind. Thanks. Great video.

[@martinarcher5280]

I believe you could move the second seat, to center you a bit better. The cross winds don't affect me much.I have it put away, for the winter. Remind me, in the spring and I can send you some pics.

[@ph0nevid]

Do you have a trailer for hauling the Stealth? Looking at roof rack options.

[@martinarcher5280]

Yeah, I modified a boat trailer. The Stealth is 155lbs. Not sure a roof rack would work.

[@godslittleman5451]

Will this boat haul 2 guys and a 60 pound dog?

[@martinarcher5280]

I think you would be pushing the limit, with that. We sit low with 2 guys and traps.

[@BettySwollocks13]

This is exactly what I need for photography, that stability is my insurance. is this available in the UK or does anyone know of a similar boat? Thanks for the vid.

[@martinarcher5280]

I don't know if it's available, in the UK. Is there anyone who can help Betty?

[@BettySwollocks13]

@@martinarcher5280 Thanks, I Checked out their sight but the expense of importing makes it an expensive proposition, same if you buy it from eBay...... I'll keep looking

[@tdog9150]

Great video,, I’m very interested in this .. where do yu get one ?

[@martinarcher5280]

I bought it from my local hunting shop

[@cl3794]

Been looking to get one .hows the motor mount for it also do you think a smaller outboard less then 4hp would work

[@martinarcher5280]

I think a 4 HP outboard would be too heavy. The side piece isn't overly strong. If I remember right, you can't use more than 30lbs thrust.

[@MarkYoungBushcraft]

How heavy is it?? Could you carry it overhead??

[@martinarcher5280]

It's 155lbs bare

[@MarkYoungBushcraft]

Great looking boat. Looks excellent for fishing and hunting. A bit heavy for me as I like portaging into less accessible lakes

[@martinarcher5280]

the weight is a downside, but I love it, otherwise

[@danhold1]

nice boat, good video

[@martinarcher5280]

Thanks for watching, and kind words.

[@FSBushcraft]

That is a sweet looking boat Bro, where did you pick it up at...

[@martinarcher5280]

At a local dealer. PM me, and I can put you in touch.
