    That's a beautiful boat. When you get it set up, I would be curious as to your thoughts on the surf wave and how it compares to the G25. And how was the surf wave on the G25 compared to the M235?

  2. Fi21 vs Fi23

    DrNate replied to MBMD77's topic in Centurion Boats General Discussion

    I, too, am lucky to have a friend just like this. And we de-stress together

    Well that's a bummer. If you guys ever plan to go we'd love to meet you there. I'd bet Rhunt would be up for a trip as well. We all have family close by to stay with

    Have fun and send some pics!

    Well first of all I assume you are talking about the surf wave? This hull will throw a mean surf wave on both sides assuming you have an A-plate, which if I remember correctly the 2015's do. For the Port side (regular) wave you'll want about 2500 pounds total and NO BOW WEIGHT. So however you need to do it to get there. You can maybe fill your Starboard Ram about half but leave the Starboard PNP empty. You want all the Port side full as much as possible. Try wake plate at 50% and play around with speed from 10.7-11.0. Everything opposite from above for Starboard or Goofy wave. Should be better than the Maliboo, not worse
  6. Can't help with the codes but the oil should be 15W-40. And it wouldn't throw a code like that for low oil, so the dealer might be your best option

  7. Fuel consumption Fi 21/23

    DrNate replied to dukesofhazzard's topic in Centurion Boats General Discussion

    These numbers are crazy. I think I need to figure my GPH, but I can go 2-3 days (surfing only) on a 50 gallon tank of gas

  8. 2010 SV230 Need Cover

    DrNate replied to HomeBrew9's topic in Centurion Boats General Discussion

    Great Lakes Skipper sells many things that dealers have left over. Should be OEM, just make sure it's the correct cover for a 230
  9. Next time get video

    You shouldn't judge Texas by one nasty looking river in the middle of nowhere. No ugly water or alligators here:
  11. There are many threads about the Drainmaster to Valterra switch, but I think this is the best one. Has pictures and even video: http://www.centurioncrew.com/index.php?/forums/topic/10021-help-quick-fill-gate-failure/&
  12. If I knew you lived so close to Drainmasters place I would give you $100 to go over there and kick Doug in the shin. I have spent many hours on the phone with this guy over 6 years talking about failing Drainmaster valves, the reasons for it, and sending him the failed ones so that he can troubleshoot. When you're on a first name basis with the man in charge of a company for a very small but critical component of your boat that's never a good thing!
  13. I believe this is it. It's titled "winterization" but it pretty much covers everything

    DrNate replied to Troy's topic in Centurion Boat Owners Hook-Up

    You won't be disappointed, the pics you get with the water color are worth the trip. It literally looks like the Caribbean. Here's a pic of last year. Also, it shouldn't be more than about 5 hours for ya
  15. I hate to say it, but there is your issue. I went through like 5 Drainmasters before I bit the bullet and switched to Velterras. It's not hard to do and I haven't had a single issue yet! Best mod I ever did

  16. Canyon Lake, TX

    DrNate replied to Troy's topic in Centurion Boat Owners Hook-Up

    We were up there this time last year. It's a beautiful lake, nice greenish-blue water. I hear it's a little low at the moment so be careful! I know there's a couple members here up that way as well
  17. Man, it's just a guess but I think it was around 2 or 300 dollars. He said that he happened to have an entire front piece with all of the stuff already on it from another trailer that was trashed from the back. So he just replaced the whole front piece which was probably a lot easier (but more expensive if you had to buy it obviously). The piece already had the brake cable on it
  18. That's a very nice and detailed write-up! I did the exact same thing and it was right when my trailer was due for inspection. Had a local trailer place do it for me. Lesson learned
  19. I've never seen this but I'll bump your thread. Obvious question is have you inspected the valves? Are they opening and closing?

  20. Kids wake surf boards

    DrNate replied to Maxpowers1207's topic in Centurion Boats General Discussion

    I like the Scamp as well but I like the Inland Surfer Ooze the best. The reason? You can put 3 fins on it and it is super stable. My kids both learned on one
  21. If you got 5-6 years out of your batteries, consider yourself lucky and buy 2 new ones. I can almost guarantee that is your issue!

  22. 2016 SV244 pricing

    DrNate replied to cyclone's topic in Centurion Boats General Discussion

    Well obviously you'd never pay MSRP. Where are you located?
  23. My screen always acts funny when my batteries are low/going dead. I would remove both batteries and have them tested. Also, do you remember what your volts were reading while underway?
  24. Hey, he went halves with his brother
  25. I think that's a good plan. My two forward deepest bunks wear the fastest. I've already done them once and they are almost due again. Pics would be awesome Troy! Wow, I just went to their website. The ones with LED's look sweet!
