Tuff Boat on Long Island

**AlexKotovmn** · 08-04-2015, 11:08 AM

That is my buddies trailer. He just bought a new tuff trailer. Steal at 800. That is at least a 1000 trailer all day long

Greg - reduction of 100lbs on this hull design should result in +1mph, based on analysis, anyway.

p.s. - Tuff boats are masterpieces of construction!

mickey there great motors they do the job, as we can see from what out there allready, you cant take it away from them, but just a question? is that a good number for a 22 progression? if I remember correctly p2'2s with a x was faster, but joe can answer that, if anybody spend the time in set up he did, that boat was a rocket..
