right the Stealth's are NICE !!!, fast , light. Ariels` has the self priming live well....That`s an Eddie yak right there, dont know if your going new or used..I`m sure fishkraft has one somewhere with your name on it ,LOL.
It’s Ariel’s fault, da brahhdah lifted that puppy off his truck like a boss straight to the launch superhero style.  It’s all in the fish”works”.  Condo life does present a storage issue.  1st world stuff.  Grateful for health and business...

LOL, a couple of years ago I saw Anthony pick up his Steath ProFisha with one hand at TC and strolled up to his car, and I knew that one day, I would own a Stealth. Not quite ready to pull the trigger, but soon...

A guy posted one for sale used a while back, I think he was in Gilroy, said he was in no hurry, maybe still available?

Go for it Eddie!

Any of you stealth rockstars utilizing a back support system for paddling or is it better to learn strong posture and just own it on the design, 6-7 hours on the water?  Paddling I could imagine being upright and expected.  I’m trying to imagine drifting or mooching without a little back leaning option.  Why do I even care you ask, well now, stay tuned.... :smt006

Backrest for sure. I use the stealth full seat, very comfortable all day. I think fishkrsft used a different seat that works real good.
Thank you, I noticed  a kinda half seat looking thing on their page but did not see the full seat.  Is it a wet ride or do you sponge out the seatwell? :smt006
I’m not sure I follow what you mean with the seat, mines a full seat here, with a bottom and back. It’s not a high back but on a kayak like this I personally wouldn’t want that.
The only pic I can find that kind of shows it, there is a bottom half under those fish.

It is a wet but ride as no drains, but I don’t notice in dry suit.


A little late response but haven't been kayaking or on the forum for a bit. Here's a few more pictures of the full Stealth seat, It works great and I store the weights I plan to use for the day in the back pocket. Haven't tried just the back rest and definitely couldn't do the no seat thing on an Evolution.

I have two of these already. They are minimal and work well for me. They rinse off easy. No cloth to hold bacteria. I will be adapting my new Stealth for it.

Thank you, I'd love to see how it fits in your new stealth which has a deeper well... :smt006

I have their back rest, and I am not a big fan of it.  I also use a Hobie inflatable seat pad, and I like that  combo's with the back rest. But I plan on getting a better seat.
