Stealth Stalker Boat
Sea Eagle Hunter Green Stealth Stalker 10 is a new kind of inflatable fishing boat for anglers who insist on a craft that is truly safe and stable even on rough water. Large inside cockpit is roomy enough for two to fish comfortably while completely enclosed with inflatable tubes that provide tremendous buoyancy and sea worthiness. Rated for up to 1,200 pounds, making it suitable for packing in a week-long camping trip, too. Exceptionally responsive for a small inflatable whether rowed or powered by a small gas outboard or electric trolling motor. Motor mount rated for up to 4 horsepower or 74 pounds of thrust. Like all Sea Eagle boats, the Stealth Stalker 10 can be configured many ways. With marine plywood floor boards and inflatable seats, total weight is still just 78 pounds, ideal for packing into remote areas. Rig with 360-degree swiveling pedestal fishing seats, Scotty™ rod holders and other fishing accessories, and you may cast for bass or troll all day long in total comfort from a boat that still is light enough for two anglers to easily pick up and carry several hundred yards to the water. Should you desire, you may even protect yourself with a rear overhead canopy. Inflate with the included high-speed foot pump and then fully set up in less than 15 minutes. MSRP starts at $999, and if you order now, you may receive the $1,699 Deluxe package at no extra cost. Contact: Sea Eagle, Dept. FFG, 19 N.
