The beavertail BT3 is bar none the best poling, driest riding, most stable technical skiff I have been in. The boat handle a stiff 30 mph breeze in lake robin on Friday afternoon. The chop was substantial to say the least and I was able run cross sea and stay dry. I poled into a 20 mph east wind all day yesterday and I have never been less sore or tired. The boat tracks straight and spins on a dime. Will, the owner of Aeon Marine tells me that the inverted keels on the bottom of the boat make all the difference in the world. I can say that I am absolutely in love with this boat and I definitely made the right decision. I will add some pics of her in the water when I get them from Will.
