Line 'em up and compare. Rough water? With deep seating and freeboard that's no problem for these 6 SOB's.

It's a new decade and the orange 21 has just been sighted roaming the waters of California. It's preparing for battle as the only Tuff 21 in the United States.

Boat evidently weighed 946 lbs rigged but without a motor plus 135 lbs for the full interior. 62" inside gunnel width measured just behind the front seats.

It's now running a 300XS with Sporty.

What battle is it preparing for? Parker 300?

[AZMIDLYF]

Ski races Da Bull.
