    Question Tuff 24 with a 450r... Why not?

    150 pounds more than a 300R... Right?

    I have driven a comp Vandal (14.5') with a mod 15" 225 Pro Max before and had no problems...

    As long as the CG is right....

    The 24 goes faster then I want with the 300, but if someone else is buying, I bet Mark could make it work.

    too much weight too high...
    but according to tuff they could pull off twin 2.5's on 15'' mids.
    Now that would be the ultimate 24

    The 28 went 106 with a 450 first time out. They are expecting 110+ once it’s dialed in. Wait till the 450 platform makes another 100hp

    My stock 300xs has pushed 101 on my 24 on a hot day and not too light on fuel. Also I still have a ways to go on prop, conditions, engine tuning and seat time. I could only imagine how hard a 450 would pull on this thing!!!!
