I don't have a S238 but my 2014 F350 diesel does a great job of towing my 226 through serious mountain passes. It's actually pretty comfortable for a 1ton and gets much better mpg than my GM 6.0 gasser did and has better stopping power. I guess it depends on where you live and tow but I'm glad I opted for the diesel.

Engine Compartment Heater
lakerat replied to mattmx181's topic in Supreme Boat Maintenance, Performance, Troubleshooting
I need to fully winterize where I live but I still keep a Caframo heater ( Cwazy1's first link) in my engine compartment over the winter. I've only had it one season, but so far so good. -

September 2017 Pics and Video Thread

Looks like a great time. Congrats on your new 244! -
I would suggest adding more detail about surf setup like ballast (bags,pumps,etc) and some pics of your surf wave. You might also consider keeping it. I know it's hard when you've lived close to the water but I have to drive 1.5 hrs. in any direction to suitable water and it's not that big of a deal.

Good save! That could have been hard on both boat and board.

Keep 2014 or time to upgrade?
lakerat replied to InfinitySurf's topic in Centurion Boats General Discussion
I have an F350 diesel and a big enough garage, so if you buy the 257 maybe we could share it? We're only 2500 miles apart. -
Thanks! I'll give them a try but at this point it may be next season.

Yes, I'm running all 4 fins. I haven't tried it without the nubsters. I'm coming from mainly riding skim, other than my Soulcraft Slider (a different beast altogether), so I'm used to loose. :-) but I'm happy with the quad setup. I'll try it without the nubs and let you know. Recommendations?

I bought the quad set of these http://chaossurfco.com/wakesurffins/chaoswakesurffin Mine are orange, as that is all that was left in stock.

I bought a used Doomswell Neo a couple of weeks ago and though I liked it, I was ready to move on to something else. I decided to order a set of Chaos Quad fins and try them on the Neo. What a difference; the board seems quicker and more stable at the same time and just felt better all around. My first set of upgraded fins and they were well worth it.

Any idea what prompted the changes to Supreme? It seems like the "If it ain't broke" adage should apply here.

The head plant in the face of the wave is classic!
