Regular settings 3-6 people PNP all full including bow Ram 100% surf side 40% off side Cats 30 tab 10 Not the best picture but The guy surfing is 5’8 165ish 5 people in the boat

My son took one right on the eye brow that required stitches last year. Always try to remind people to bring there hands up when they fall.

I ran similar weights in my old sv230. I guess we got spoiled but my 270lb buddy can legitimately surf 20 - 25 ft back from the platform. The wave is insanely good. A friend of mine who was looking for a boat and had the money to buy any boat he wanted ended up with an sv233 after surfing behind my boat. He called me the other day and had been out surfing in a few different boats (23 LSV, g23, Moomba) this summer and all he could talk about was how much better his wave is. And I am not slamming those boats at all, but purely for surfing I don't know that you can get better wave than a listed Centurion.

I run two 450 bags on th seats if there is only a couple of us. Everything else is ram or PNP in the lockers

On our 2015 SV233 we run the following: Regular Foot Cats 30 tab 10 Ramfill tanks: 100 % port 30% starboard PNP Bags 100% port 100% starboard 60% Bow Obviously everyone prefers different waves but this gets us the best starting point and we can tweak small amounts depending on how many and placement in the boat. We surf between 10.9 mph (my wife 110 lbs) and 11.3 mph. If there are only 2 or 3 of us (usually its just me , my wife, and maybe one more) I add two 450 bags, one on on the back seat and one on the surf side seat. Still working on getting the darkside wave perfect. Seems like most of my surfing buddies are all regular foot, but we just added a goofy rider to our group of riders so we'll be working on getting that wave dialed in.

Really digging those new Ri's

Do you know what changed from 2015 to 2016?

I am trying to dial in the surf wave on the new SV233 and looking for a little help from the ballast experts. The wave is huge and looks great but it doesn't seem to have the push of my old boat. I have tried a few different settings in the new boat but right now I am at. Port Ram - 100% Starboard - 0% Port PNP - 100% Starboard PNP - 100% Bow 20% Tab 10% CATS 17% Speed 10.8 to 11 mph My last boat was dialed in for the regular side. 07 sv230 Port Enzo sac (1400 lbs +/-) 2 450's in an L on the back and port side seat 250 lbs on starboard. Tab at 20% Speed 11.3 mph I could surf 15 ft back all day. The wave didn't look as big but it had incredible push. So, my question is what if anything should I change to give it more push?

Ok, finally got the video loaded to vimeo. This was my buddies first ride of the year. Guess it helps to grow up surfing in the ocean. https://vimeo.com/137640418

Not sure why the video won't upload. Anyone know a quick way to get the videos loaded?

Little video of my buddy Aaron killing on his first day wake surfing this year. Guess it helps to grow up surfing for real.

Even with the high altitude prop? Not doubting you I am just surprised the altitude makes that big of a difference. I have hauled our race trailer through the mountains out west and lived in Montana for 8 years and driving through some of the high altitude passes there was a difference in performance but not that drastic. I guess the difference in resistance of air and water. That said I don't see a gas tuner making that much difference

I have had multiple tuned Diesels over the last 20 years and there are major improvements available, both from a power, longevity and effiiciency standpoint. BUT I have never seen one on a gas motor that was worth it. While I would love to see better fuel consumption on my 450, I don't see a need for more power.

Just pulled the boat out for the break in service and noticed the Quiet Tip Silencer was completely gone, but the screws were still in place and nice and tight. Anybody else had an issue with this piece just pulling off?

It's funny, the last day out I remember noticing a change in pitch/noise level but then I thought, must be my imagination. And it may have been since I don't know when the silencer came off. I put it back on the lift last night but never went faster than idle so I didn't notice it being overly loud. I will definitely take note of the sound difference when I install a new one. I am planning on putting the Centurion piece back on assuming it should be warrantied.

Interesting news! http://www.nautique.com/Press/index/centurion-boats-and-supreme-boats-join-the-correct-craft-family Posted Thread combined with this PRESS RELEASE

Bigcatpt - Yes the max load rating should be on the side wall, normally near the edge where the tire mounts to the wheel. The speed rating will be represented by a letter H, R, S, Z etc., some tires may list the associated speed. You may have to look up the letter rating but a simple google search will give you the speed associated with the letter.

Very nice looking boat. Love the color it reminds me of my old 230.

Nice looking boat Austin!

Volzalum - Your boat has to be one of my favorite boats out there. I am a UT alum also but after 10 years in Minneapolis the wife and I moved back to Tennessee about 8 years.

It's a tough call, I am trying to decide which way to go on my boat too. When I bought I was sure I was going to remove the sticker but every time I start to do it I decide to hold off. Not sure why. If I had to vote on your boat I would say ditch it, but it looks great either way.

150 to 200 per year.

A few from the holiday. Trying to get a couple more but they are to big. Anyone know an easy way to resize the photo on iPhone.

My GPS seems to be locked and the touch screen manual is pretty light on troubleshooting. Purchased the boat last Friday, and while all the other touch functionality seems to working perfectly, the GPS hasn't worked at all. I have attached a picture that shows what the screen looks like when you pull up the GPS. I have checked and it is registering satellites. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Bongo - I hear you. She loved the wake on the 230. Problem is she loves to surf more than me so I never get out without her. I just used it as an excuse to sell her on the new boat. Dreamer - I will give it a shot.
