Post Beavertail short tail
Anyone seen or driven a beavertail shortail motor. Is it made by BT or is it a GT just with the BT sticker on it.

Yea i didn't think it was made by GT. I'll be curious to hear some reviews of there motor. I know they are pretty expensive engines though.

It's not a Gatortail. The motor is made in Minnesota by Otter/Beavertail and they have plenty to fall back on as far as other product lines. The mass boat companies have had trouble because of mass production and over runs. Beavertail boats are made one at a time just like when the Fisher's had the company in fact they have the same welder as the Fisher's did.

BlueRock manufacturing builds the boats. As far as their shortail motors, not a clue.
