Fastest SOB hull???

[AZMIDLYF]

More about the 115s ability than the boat at this show.

Yea it’s a great motor on a 16 super or small checkmate or even 16 tuff. But I fell like a 21 tuff would do better than 53

95 first shot out without even doing a custom labed prop. I wonder what this has in it for a final # after some tweaking. Great job Rich. Congratulations to the new owner, lots of luck, she’s beautiful.

I think it is more interesting to compare with equal power, whatever the HP is, say 250 or 300, to find the most efficient hull. We just need to have a popular race class with "stock" power and see who can build the best one.

The Parker Enduro is your answer. They have a green class. Problem is they will have to race against a 21ft Nordic in some pretty nasty water.

Ya, I think a few years ago a Sutphen 21 with an HP 525 did 94?, so with some work, this one should be close to 100. Although, from the article, it's built a little heavier, two batteries etc. Looks awesome in silver.

Agree they make a great looking hull. I wish someone would set one up with a 300XS to see what it would clock. Maybe there is one out there.

[AZMIDLYF]

Think the current Sutphen hull has had some changes made to it as well. Love the classic lines of these.

Is't the duff 21 in the number one slot
have a modified 300x
Your saying all the boats have stock
300xs

[Greg G]

Duff? The boys up North would have all the details ..........

The tuff has a stock 300xs with a stock sportmaster and a stock 32 bravo prop. When the warranty is up at the end of this year, DBR mods and a few other ideas are likely going to happen. 110 is the mark I am aiming for. Honestly so far, all around performance has been the goal.

[Greg G]

I believe this is the actual Tuff that clocked the 106 with a stock 300XS but Rob can correct me if not.

Appears all the Tuff guys are staying away from this site, Either they dont like all the bashing or know that their wheel is not more round than the next!
