2005 Lightning not starting
Nikj posted a topic in Centurion Boat Maintenance, Performance, Troubleshooting
I have a had a 2005 centurion Lightning has been working great all summer Went to drop it in the other day and it turns but won’t fire No fading from the battery like that’s bad and it cranks just fine Fuel pump primes and you can smell the fuel any suggestion If I use the clutch and push the throttle all the way forward it fires and gurgles at the end thanks in advance hoping someone has experienced the same -

I'm 5'7" 230 and ride a few Phase Fives I had both the Flyboy and the Big Boy Flyboy I never got comfortable with my short legs on the BBFB and would pearl the flyboy at my size I also had a trident and then got a new one with the new tail design and didn't like how slow it had become Currently I have a 57" Wire fun surf style 62" Kong longboard and 57" Drew Diamond good skimmer and put a smaller skim fin on I probably ended up riding the Kong the most last year it is surprisingly nimble for such a big board

2005 Centurion Lightning Starting Issues
Nikj posted a topic in Centurion Boat Maintenance, Performance, Troubleshooting
I have a 2005 centurion lightning with the 330-horsepower MerCruiser Just replaced the front and rear battery I'm having intermittent starting issues It eventually starts but sometimes when I go to turn the key I get nothing No clicking like it's trying to start, I can hear a relay go on back by the engine but no starting But, if I try eventually it starts strong, sometime 5 turns of the key sometimes 10+, but it always starts and hasn't left me stranded. (Knock on wood)! Any ideas Cleaned terminals and contacts on batteries when I replaced them this week It's weird hopefully some else has experienced this before I drag it in and get in deep with a mechanic -
2005 Centurion Lightning Starting Issues
Nikj replied to Nikj's topic in Centurion Boat Maintenance, Performance, Troubleshooting
So I am seaworthy again Turned out when it arced it fried a 50 amp fuse back by the starter and the intermittent starting was cased by the slave starter solenoid picked up parts from a marine dealer today and had them in and ready to go by evening Vacation can start tomorrow -
2005 Centurion Lightning Starting Issues
Nikj replied to Nikj's topic in Centurion Boat Maintenance, Performance, Troubleshooting
Well now I've got something else going on I got a big spark while cleaning the contacts as it worked when bridged with a needle once pliers and was hoping it was due to a a little rust on those contacts and now I have nothing when I turn the key The radio button works and I have full power at both batteries Hoping somewhere I just popped a fuse or something ! -
2002 Avy/Merc 350 MPI not starting
Nikj replied to RhuntIII's topic in Centurion Boat Maintenance, Performance, Troubleshooting
RhuntIII thanks you found it I jumped the gap and got it to start numerous times anyone know if this is a proprietary part or would it be readily be available from a big marine dealer like a marine max (not my first choice but 45 miles away and biggest dealer around) Sorry to be so impatient but we leave for vacation on Wednesday so that hinders delivery time -
2002 Avy/Merc 350 MPI not starting
Nikj replied to RhuntIII's topic in Centurion Boat Maintenance, Performance, Troubleshooting
So I'm not great with engines Is that the push button circuit breaker?? Thanks In advance -
I am looking for any leads on a Bimini for this boat We just had a newborn, and when I bought the boat it didn't have one so looking for one now
-
Pm'd is there still a chance to get in on this Thanks
-
Sorry slacked off and didn't check this forum PM me if interested I need at least a large skim to trade but would sell for a fair price It's in great shape
-
Looking to trade my big boy for a skim now that I have the regular flyboy Looking for a 58 drew diamond Any takers
-
SO I picked up a barely used flyboy for cheap and compared to my big boy I like it so far I have short legs and the big boy is such a stretch for me to ride on the sweet spot, I feel like I'm doing the splits all the time A lil about me I'm 5'7" and 235 lbs The flyboy is awesome but lacking a little buoyancy for me, and now when I go back to the big boy I feel like its sluggish comparably, possibly need a bigger wake then my Centurion LIghting I need a Mid-boy I guess, a little more volume in the front of the fly boy and a shortened center point for a narrower stance
-
So we've had some heavier rains here lately and with this cover I have had some poling of water in it I Don't know if it's because the ski pylon sticks up in the back, but I had to resort to putting a support pole from my old boat in it On a plus note the cover is not leaking

Quick question Whats my 2013 Phase 5 Trident worth I got it as a replacement of a 12 and I never liked it so I loaned it to my neighbor for the summer He probably used it less than half a dozen times Light scuffs associated with being in a rack
