Thoughts on buying a boat unseen and having shipped
WETSU Wakesurfer replied to shumie7's topic in Centurion Boats General Discussion
I am sure you saw this in the classifieds and I realize it is not in the price range you are looking for but it is just down the road from you at Jordan Lake outside Raleigh. http://www.centurioncrew.com/index.php/classifieds/item/428-2013-centurion-enzo-sv230-loaded/ -
I need a used Enzo, what's the better ballast, tower, and ProVision
WETSU Wakesurfer replied to 1rusty68's topic in Centurion Boats General Discussion
Swivels were always an option. They are expensive to add after the fact if they are not ordered initially. -
Factory SV/FS Ballast Wiring
WETSU Wakesurfer replied to CO Surfer's topic in Centurion Boat Accessories, Electronics and Modifications
Pretty sure those are part of your interior LED lights wiring. They look to be the same color and in the same place as mine were. -
Bow filler cushion needed for 2014 SV244
WETSU Wakesurfer replied to InfinitySurf's topic in Centurion Boats General Discussion
Just another thought. Since it is a 2014 SV244 and is not part of the 2017 Centurion line now you should be able to deal directly with Fineline. I would call them again. Also, I needed the same thing and what I did was order the factory "skin" for my 2013 SV230+ and then took it to a local upholstery place and had them do the foam and base. The skin was a lot cheaper than the complete cushion and the local place was still cheaper so even with total cost I came out over $300 less than what it would have cost me to by the complete cushion from Fineline. -
Let's talk wakesurf boards...
WETSU Wakesurfer replied to MFaso's topic in Watersports & Related Gear
A properly sized surf style board will allow you to move around the wave also. I get just as much mobility on the wave with my skim as I do with my surf. The skim is easier to spin and try to do skateboard style tricks, while the surf can be spun but also allows to carve. -
Board Condition Advice Needed
WETSU Wakesurfer replied to Typhoon08's topic in Watersports & Related Gear
I would have just sealed it and then put a Nose Guard for surfboards on it. The nose of the board is rarely in the water and does not take any abuse to speak of. I had that happen during shipping to an IS Swallow I bought used. Sealed it neatly with 3M 7200 and put the nose guard protector on it. Never had any issues with it at all. -
Let's talk wakesurf boards...

I am 5'11" and 220 and I have owned and ridden IS and P5 boards. My current boards are a P5 Danielo Diamond 57 inch (skim), a P5 Race 53.5 inch (surf), a P5 Race 56.5 inch (surf), a P5 Icon (kids skim), and a IS Tako (hybrid skim/surf). My next board will likely be a P5 Hammerhead 53 inch. The DD is an awesome responsive board that is also very forgiving, it comes with a 1 inch fin and can be very loose. I swapped a 2 inch fin onto it for awhile and once I got used to the board I went back to the 1 inch fin. It spins easy and has nice rails that allow for carving as well. The Race is a sweet surf style board with twin fins. It is fast and responsive and is very light so it boosts for airs easily. The Icon is the next size up from the P5 Scamp and is a great all around skim style board for kids and small adults to learn on. It is light and easy to ride. I can even ride it myself ropeless, but I have to be careful not to carve aggressively or I get spit out the back since I am way over its weight limit. The Tako was the first board I ever bought and it remains the Boat board for beginners to learn on. The board closest to it in the P5 line I would think is the Oogle. My wife also rides (5'5" 120 also) and her favorite board is the P5 Diamond Luv, that will be a purchase this year I am sure but friends have one so it hasn't been on the top of the acquisition list. -
Amazing and Awesome 2016
WETSU Wakesurfer replied to waketheworld's topic in Centurion Boats General Discussion
I am looking forward to the WtW events in NC this year since we just moved here. I am planning to at a minimum be at Tillery and Jordan if it happens, and will be at others if my schedule permits. But Uncle Sam usually has something to say about that. -
Show off your goofy wave!
WETSU Wakesurfer replied to prorider17's topic in Centurion Boats General Discussion
If I remember correctly it took me 5 sheets to basically do all of the floor carpeting that was enclosed or under seat from the bow through the clamshell storage and mid-seats into the lockers. I did not replace the carpeting on the vertical surfaces since any water will drain down off of them and they can dry easier. I tried to cut the sections out in whole pieces where possible so that they could be used as templates for the Hydroturf and then I just cut it a little big and trimmed it to fit with the backing still on. Once it was ready I pulled the backing and I also used 3M Spray adhesive and Weldwood contact cement in key areas along seams, etc to ensure it would not peel up. It has been in for 3 years now and I have not had to go in and re-glue anything.- 24 replies

Show off your goofy wave!
WETSU Wakesurfer replied to prorider17's topic in Centurion Boats General Discussion
I don't get any wash over the transom even if I chop the throttle. I do get some water through the Carbon vent covers occasionally. Shortly after I got the boat I pulled the carpet out of all the locker areas that were subject to getting wet from gear or from water through the rear vent and replaced the carpet with Hydroturf throughout. So even with getting a little water in the rear lockers through the vent it has not caused a single issue with mold, smell or anything since the Hydroturf dries so easily. One of the best mods I have made to the boat in my opinion.- 24 replies

The new P5 vests are not CGA but they float me better than any non-CGA vest I have ever worn. I let my kids wear them but I do use CGA for non-family members when they are surfing.

SV230 Enzo Goofy Surfside Spray Problem
WETSU Wakesurfer replied to DjOM21's topic in Centurion Boats General Discussion
The last option would be to add the "Duffy" flap attached to the swim step to knock it down. I had to put one on my SV230 due to the FAE causing some spray. I have the newly released FAE that is supposed to correct all of that but have not had a chance to put it on yet. -
120 hour, what needs to be serviced?
WETSU Wakesurfer replied to crimson850's topic in Centurion Boat Maintenance, Performance, Troubleshooting
2nd on the fuel separators (both).Unless the cartridge one was done at the 100 hour mark. I put about 100 hours a season on my 343 so I do both fuel filters plus Oil and filter, grease fittings and inspect belt. Replace water pump impeller as well, and drain all lines for winter storage. All of which is pretty easy and there are a lot of video's and step by step instructions for each area. -
