What would you estimate the top end for a 2007 tuffy 2060 with a 200 hp merc to be? Trying to find one used and think I found one but curious on top end. What were they rated at speed wise?

Thanks and tight lines!

The top speed of any boat depends on the load it is carrying and the placement there of. Speeds will vary among drivers as well, as some trim it more or less than others.

The 2060 DS with a 200 will run between 50 and 57 on most days.

I would be surprised to hear you can hit anything over 50mph with that rig unless you were running it by yourself with less than a half tank of gas.

No problem hitting the 50's at all.

I have owned 3 with 225 Opti's, 9.9 Pro kickers and tournament loaded that would run 59.5 to 60.4 with high five props. I have sold a 200 with same options that would pull 54 all day long. The Tuffy Hulls are made to run.

Count me as surprised!
I would have guessed upper 40's at best.

Heck, my 1890DS full load would run 56. The 2060 doesn't weigh much more, and there's no more hull in contact either. I can see 54 no problem.

I'm going to assume that you would slow down and fish a couple spots here and there.

Just funnin with ya man!

Although I've never owned one, I have always liked Tuffy boats. And the people I know that own one, all seem to love them.
I just bought a MX-2025 but if that hadn't panned out, Tuffy was on my short list of the boats I planned to look at.
It is one of the few boats I've never ridden in and someday, I would like to spend a day fishing in one.

Keep your net wet!
