New TUFF 24 ft hull

[Greg G]

Got it. How much did the 117 mph "all carbon" blue boat below weigh in at, hull only?

800 lb. I believe!

I thought there was discussion that it was even less than 800lb

...the tuff 24 is built lighter than previous v-bottoms. its also what we call a small 24, in the boat manufacturing business. its a narrow beam performance boat with a straight forward bottom design that includes a traditional small width pad with the lifting strakes located where they need to be, for additional lift. the transoms trailing edge(s) design & drive location setback also determines the boats overall angle of attack & attitude of performance. but again, the biggest advantage the tuff boats have, that improve they're performance as much as the bottoms design & low profile deck & small frontal break, over other boats that have been built in the past, are its weight advantage. most all performance boat builders in the past don't know how to build a light but strong boat, so they have'nt. i've built many lightweight national & world champion boats for decades, that never break, starting in about 1980. i know the materials & the processes. i know what he's got here & why his boats work the way they do.

What do you mean by "small" ? The beam seems to be anywhere from 6'11" to 7'8". No one has taken a tape to it I guess.

Are the blue and red boats the only 2 24s full carbon? Is the red one still running a Evinrude?
