| Are you talking about a new one? To be honest I haven't heard squat about Tuffy for quite some time. |

| Friend of mine had a 1700 Osprey tiller of same vintage that I fished out of several times. I believe the boat is rated for 60 HP. He was running it with a Merc 50 HP. I thought the boat was a nice fishing platform but was underpowered - took forever to get on plane and overall performed poorly with just two on board. Even with a 60 I doubt the would perform any better if you have 3 in the boat. |

Location: Northwest Chicago Burbs | I ran a 1700 for a season. Great boat. BUT, no matter what it says, it's a 3 person boat. |

Location: Hayward WI | I have one (2007 console) and agree. Plus you really would want the rear deck extension if it doesn't have one.
