Beavertail Final Attack Blind, Max-4

Pre-cut opening is too narrow. As others have noted, the tubing will fit inside the "wings," but when you try to connect the wing material, the opening is about two inches too narrow. I could close the wings, but could only open one because one other will bind at the point of the side link. Forcing it open would tear the material. I was able to work around this by disconnecting one of the links where it bound. The wings will now open and close, but one flops a bit. This is an obvious design flaw. Also, the elastic around the bottom seems a bit loose for riding without blowing off on my trailer. (This wouldn't be a problem if the boat was in the back of a truck or if you put the cover on and off on site). I have added short bungees at six locations to secure the material. Another problem after using this 4 times hunting is that the cover scoops water at the stern and the cloth balloons out. Almost acts as a sea anchor. Sorry to Beavertail, but I would recommend that you camo paint the boat and buy some camo cloth and fashion your own cover. Beavertail: Redesign the darn thing!

Received the blind in a timely manner. Installed the blind as instructed with enclosed paperwork. Looked awesome and was very excited to use it on my next hunt. However, when I went to open the doors to get into the boat the bottom openning had been sewn 4 inches too narrow. I could not open both doors without damaging the fabric or the door frame. A replacement has been sent and I will be sending the defective blind back. Very happy with the return process.

Not worth $250...Covers the boat good and is a nice rip stop material. But the doors are very tight in the material which makes me wonder just how long until it starts to rip. Also they require you to drill holes in the metal railing to connect a piece, for the price we are paying no extra work should need to be done to the product. Just furthers the chances that it will get messed up and you need to purchase another.

Easy to set up and it hides me good. They could improve a few things like stubble straps higher up on the doors, they left a big area without straps to put vegetation in. Straps or handles to pull doors shut with would also be nice. All around good product killed more ducks with it.
