Location: mpls | Can someone help me with this one? The Tuffy website says that the 1760 weighs 1500lbs. However, that can't be true across all of the options(console, walkthrough,ect) Usually there is a weight difference. What is the weight of a tiller?
Thanks! |

| the console itself really doesn't weigh all that much, so the tiller's only slightly lighter in boat weight.
you will save pounds having a lighter motor in the tiller version.
also, if you get the new "G" version without the fiberglass top-cap, you'll save a couple hundred pounds over the listed weight.
i think my '06 GT is about 1300 pounds fully loaded:

| JP, is that weight question with a 75hp or a 90 hp tiller? Maybe just drive an hour or so at a time. Drive, fish, drive, fish until you get to your final distination. Considering all those diet cokes, you have to stop anyway. Can I sit in your boat? |

the 1760 is rated for 75hp max.
any boats out there with a larger motor on them (there are one or two with 90hp that i know about) are non-compliant with USCG regs, and could get the owner into a sticky situation if they have a thorough insurance agent.
