MEMPHIS, Tenn. - Jan. 16, 2015 - Ducks Unlimited (DU) is pleased to welcome Gator-Tail Outboards as the organization's newest corporate partner.
Headquartered in Loreauville, La., Gator-Tail outboard motors are the original belt-driven, surface-drive mud motors and are made in the USA. Gator-Tail Outboards deliver speed and quality and are the only outboard motor on the market with an instant reverse option.

In 2015, Gator-Tail will offer a 25 horsepower Ducks Unlimited edition featuring a blacked out color and matte finish. Each motor will be assigned a limited edition serial number stamped on a stainless steel plate resembling a waterfowl band on the side of the belt-housing. The motors will also feature Gator-Tail and Ducks Unlimited decals.

"We're excited to work on this project with Gator-Tail", said DU's Director of Corporate Relations Jeremy Smith. "Mud motors are growing in popularity with waterfowl hunters, and DU is fortunate to have the opportunity to capitalize on this momentum with one of the biggest names in the industry."

Gator-Tail Outboards is working to have the limited edition motors ready this spring.

"Obtaining the DU license was very important as it allows us to make a significant impact on waterfowl conservation with the sale of each unit," said Gator-Tail Outboards owner Kyle Broussard. "Ducks Unlimited's membership and support base consists of avid sportsmen and waterfowlers who rely on quality gear and equipment in the field. Our products will certainly live up to their expectations."
