Fi25 vs Ri257 - rough water ride and infrequent waterski?
Getssum replied to DaveInTahoe's topic in Centurion Boats General Discussion
Dave, If you're ever in the SF Bay area, you're more than welcome to take a look at my Fi25! -
2015 Supreme S226 seat issues
Getssum replied to Specialblend07's topic in Supreme Boats General Discussion
Glad to hear that there is a good resolution here. This is definitely not a "normal" vinyl issue at all! -
first boat. believe I am settled on supreme s226 or s238
Getssum replied to panhandle's topic in Supreme Boats General Discussion
There are a few that hit your price range out there on the internet. https://dallas.craigslist.org/ndf/boa/d/denton-2017-supreme-s238-wakeboard-boat/6927169628.html https://albanyga.craigslist.org/bod/d/macon-2018-supreme-boats-s238/6914777120.html https://tampa.craigslist.org/pnl/boa/d/palm-harbor-2019-supreme-s238-surf-boat/6915384333.html Another option is to look at new ones as well, As we're going into 2020 the dealers don't want to be stuck with unsold "out of season" inventory. Here's an awesome looking boat. It's also great to have full warranty and to know that there won't be any damage or issues with the vinyl, etc. And often times banks will be slightly more aggressive on the interest rate for new boats vs new. Peace of mind is worth something!! https://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/bod/d/lakeport-2019-supreme-s238-ski/6921181793.html Ask for Travis. I know if it were me, and I was making such a large purchase, I'd at least feel out the dealer to see what they have to offer, and at what price!- 3 replies

Getssum replied to panhandle's topic in Supreme Boats General Discussion
IMHO the fuel consumption concern beween the S226 and S238 is minscule at best. That will be the least of your worries. As someone who had a SMALL boat (2004 Supreme V220) and now a HUGE boat (2019 Fi25) there's no way I can ever go back to the cramped older boat. We're going to be heading into the sales slide time of the year, as usually sales fall off of a cliff after July 4th. Keep your eyes peeled, keep those search engines humming, and you should be able to find exactly what you want.- 3 replies

Hein & Kim's 2019 Fi25 upgrades, enhancements and mods
Getssum replied to Hein's topic in Centurion Boat Accessories, Electronics and Modifications
If anyone is interested in adding one of these mirrors, they are part of Amazon's prime day sale, and are currently marked down to just over 100$. -
Awesome boat. No reason not to go big on your first boat, just take your time getting used to it!

2020 Changes or Announcements?
Getssum replied to BigJohn's topic in Centurion Boats General Discussion
Two new Centurion models, from what I've heard. Now we're going to have the Ri, Vi, and Fi. Supreme is getting a new tower. More to come, I'm sure. -
Hein I don't think you're weighting the Fi25 correctly, IMHO the boat does NOT need more weight than factory to surf, and surf well. I think you need more roll, maybe draining off some of the opposite side of the rider. Maybe post on the Facebook group for best settings, but based on that video the boat is definitely not set up correctly.

2008 Ski Supreme V220 for skiing
Getssum replied to av8tor's topic in Supreme Boats General Discussion
I used to own a 2004 V220. Great boat, and no reason it shouldn't be able to give you a fairly flat wake for skiing. The boat LOVES weight for surfing. Does really well with a shaper on it as well. I never skiied but with the stock prop the boat got up to low 40's I believe, and that's on the stock prop. -
Centurion doesn’t care about the Dallas customers
Getssum replied to Texifornian's topic in Centurion Boats General Discussion
Yea, would love to hear the other side of this story. I'm sure it is plenty different as Freedom is pretty well regarded. Always two sides to every story. -
Gator Step and Monster Cargo Bimini on Zero Flex Flyer Tower
Getssum replied to rsutton1223's topic in Centurion Boat Accessories, Electronics and Modifications
Mods look great. Keep the teak! It's classy and not something you'll find on newer boats because of the cost of the lumber! -
Boat model is Eclipse. Have him shoot you a picture of the engine as I THINK the base engine (270) hp was still carb'd.

Gladiator Surf Racks
Getssum replied to RhuntIII's topic in Centurion Boat Accessories, Electronics and Modifications
By "Flipped the board I meant put riding surface down, as the bottom rails on the boards that touch the water are typically more rounded than the top deck. Glad to see it is all working out though! -
Gladiator Surf Racks
Getssum replied to RhuntIII's topic in Centurion Boat Accessories, Electronics and Modifications
Now that you have your angles set, I'm wondering if you could lower it by going to a custom piece that is the same angle as the hinge fitting. I wonder at which point the play is coming in. IMHO it is hard sometimes to get the knob screws as tight as you can with a tool. Also wonder if you flipped the board if it'd make any difference as the bungee/strap would be more at a curve vs the sharper edge of the rail. All in all, great work and you are at the final tweaking stages! -
Check your messages. As far as avy completely different hull designs. Avy will be pretty bad for Skiing imho.

https://boulder.craigslist.org/boa/d/2004-ski-supreme-v220sp/6336698951.html There's the listing!

Just remember that the 270 hp engine is the old carb engine, and I'd want a 350 MAG at the very least. Gives you much more options. Fuel injection is just so much better!

Jake, If you're looking for a new board I've got a buddy selling a Chaos Team Wedge for about the same price as that doomswell. Little bit shorter at 4'6" but an awesome board, comes with Chaos bag as well. He's got it listed on a facebook site so I'm not sure I can link you. Email me at ericjohnsilva AT gmail.com and I'll send the info off to you.

Over tower Bimini for Proflight
Getssum replied to djs758's topic in Centurion Boat Accessories, Electronics and Modifications
That makes some sense - But on the board storage, I could probably easily get 6 boards on top of my Corson Racks, maybe more if I used longer bungees or started taking fins out! Starts looking ridiculous after a while though. -
Over tower Bimini for Proflight
Getssum replied to djs758's topic in Centurion Boat Accessories, Electronics and Modifications
Just our of curiosity, why would you want this sort of cover? One of the things I love about my older boat is that the bimini is lower, thus offering more shade throughout the day, and I can run Corson's surfboards racks on top of the tower, allowing me to have up to 6 boards out of the way and protected. -
Costly Metal Flake Repair
Getssum replied to chowder2016's topic in Centurion Boat Maintenance, Performance, Troubleshooting
Heard good things about Morrison Marine in Rancho Cordova as well as someone in Tracy. Nor Cal Mastercraft gave me a reference but I wrote it down and lost it! Good luck! -
The Ri257 makes me feel sooo small!
-
Owner of an 04' V220 myself. Boat is pretty great for wakeboarding, nice clean wake that just gets bigger with ballast. Not the best Surf boat due to the flatter hull but I've figured out a way to make it work pretty well. I've been through my boat like crazy, upgraded virtually everything. PM me and we can chat more.

There should be an hour meter built into the tachometer. If it is suspect or otherwise, the dealer can plug into their scan tool and pull the data as discussed above.
