Review: Great little mud motor. - I have this 70 lb motor on my 180 lb 14 foot flat bottom aluminum jon boat and love it. I've skated across 3 inches of water with no problem. I don't use electric start so I don't need battery in boat to save weight and space. Pull starts every time, does around 10-15 mph when loaded with me and dog, has built in gas tank. Haven't tested how far it goes on full tank and ran it out of gas once already (just paddled back) but it can go a good distance. I now keep a small back up gas can on board and my paddle. ## Features - Go where others can't; These guide-quality backcountry motors let you penetrate shallow hideaways and chew your way over mud flats in pursuit of the best hunting and fishing locations; Exclusive Uni-Seamless frame construction for die-hard durability - Upper and lower stainless steel removable caps and housings; Super-weedless, heavy-cupped stainless steel Performance Series X props; All are sealed with a corrosion-resistant zinc undercoat and a powder-coated finish - The 6.5hp Vanguard is the smallest motor Beaver offers; Great for sneak boats and flat-backed canoes; All-aluminum block Super-Lite construction; Electric start with manual backup; Tailshaft swings into boat on its 360 Degree swivel ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00EJXS0PG | | Brand | Beavertail | | Brand Name | Beavertail | | Customer Reviews | 5.0 out of 5 stars 1 Review | | Engine Type | Electric | | Fuel Type | Gasoline | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00609142945073 | | Manufacturer | Beavertail | | Manufacturer Part Number | 400214 | | Material | Alloy Steel, Aluminum, Stainless Steel | | Material Type | Alloy Steel, Aluminum, Stainless Steel | | Maximum Horsepower | 6.5 Horsepower | | Model Number | 400214 | | Mounting Type | Transom Mount | | Operation Mode | Electric, Manual | | Recommended Uses For Product | For Fishing Boats | | UPC | 609142945073 | | Voltage | 24 Volts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Beavertail - **Engine Type:** Electric - **Material:** Alloy Steel, Aluminum, Stainless Steel - **Operation Mode:** Electric, Manual - **Recommended Uses For Product:** For Fishing Boats ## Images ![Beavertail 6.5 HP Vanguard Long Tail Mud Motor - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71jfLZi5-dL.jpg) ![Beavertail 6.5 HP Vanguard Long Tail Mud Motor - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81W5PHuG+sL.jpg) ![Beavertail 6.5 HP Vanguard Long Tail Mud Motor - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91meBxj2RlL.jpg) ![Beavertail 6.5 HP Vanguard Long Tail Mud Motor - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91rS4NUSxWL.jpg) ![Beavertail 6.5 HP Vanguard Long Tail Mud Motor - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81cJHkmK0wL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great little mud motor. *by A***R on May 25, 2016* I have this 70 lb motor on my 180 lb 14 foot flat bottom aluminum jon boat and love it.
