  1. FS vs SV

    shameless self promotion, lol! https://sfbay.craigslist.org/pen/boa/d/2015-centurion-fs33/6478829851.html I'm partial to the FS
  2. 2017 Ri 237 vs LSV25

    I recognize that face, lol. All joking aside, if that's who I think it is, you're working with an awesome dealership!
  3. I was crawling around under my FS33 and noticed a couple of chips in the gelcoat. They almost look like there was a air pocket in the fiberglass, and the gelcoat just kind of blew out from not having any support behind it. Has anyone seen this before? Do you think Centurion would take care of it under warranty? Also, Where the prop shaft comes out of the hull is odd looking as well. I checked the motor mounts and shaft strut and nothing is loose, broken, or odd looking. No vibrations under speed either. I'm thinking maybe they changed the shaft angle for this year and just didn't update the hull???? It's a 2015 Thanks in advance!
  4. Thanks everyone for the responses. I will get with Centurion right away. As soon I saw it I was like WTF is this about?
  5. Finally got to see...

    I thought the G23 wave was a bit steep, and seemed to have a little fluff/spray off the center of the boat. I noticed that on the last G23 I rode. Still fun to ride, just not my favorite. The SA400 wave was totally stock, the boat just got to the dealer a couple of days before the event. I liked it, though it could have been a bit longer, didn't feel like I could hang back and have enough push to get back into the wave. From what I understand, it can be made much better. It's a beautiful boat, probably the best looking inside and a close second on exterior to the FI, the FI is beautiful on the outside. The best wave of the day was for sure the FI23, nice shape, fun to ride, plenty long and steep. I didn't feel like the RI257 wave was setup as good as I've seen it in the past. Don't get me wrong, it was still awesome, I just remember it being better when I rode it back in October. I did like the changes to the RI for 2018, especially the new windshield. I didn't really get to crawl around in the FI like I wanted to, but really liked it. Definitely on the top of my list of boats to consider in the future. One thing that really bugged me was the grab handles on the interior, get rid of those cheap looking things, everything else in the interior looked pretty good, but those handles didn't fit the styling. They would be better suited on a toolbox, lol!
  6. Finally got to see...

    Yeah, who knows how much fuel they started with, but there were some huge fuel guzzling factors: -Current, tides, and wind were dominant most of the day -the boats were going non stop with back to back riders, I would say at least 25-30 riders for each boat that day -between groups, the boats were moving pretty good back to the docks to swap people out -I'm pretty sure the FS33 had 10-15 people in it all day, the rest of the boats 8-10 people minimum -The FI had the supercharged motor in it, and the RI had the 450 I think???? Rumors were they were doing some prop testing.... Drivers were talking about how much fuel they were burning through that day on several other boats as well
  7. Finally got to see...

    I got the golden group, lol. Rode the new SA400, G23, FI, and RI257. I went on a friends boat on Sunday, nicest Mastercraft wave I've ever seen. I was pretty sore and tired though, so just took a quick set and helped get the boat out and cleaned up. Quick Video from the event page. They're working on a longer one
  8. Finally got to see...

    Getssum, I was out there last weekend too, didn't get a chance to meet you. Got to ride the FI in the backround, such a fun day!

  10. Thanks for posting this up, just ordered my FAE with Christina!
  11. It was really good, second favorite wave, right behind the RI257
  12. Centurion's Line for 2017

    I don't think it matters where the vents are on the boat, as long as they tie back in with the tank near its highest point
  13. Anchor recommendation

    I didn't even notice that! I run a chain on mine as well, lol. I think the chain helps set it, not sure how it wouldn't?
  14. Anchor recommendation

    I have the digger style anchor as well. I've only used it twice, but it set strong in mud/silt and came up easy. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01B1MT2JU/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I keep it in the bow of my fs33 behind the flip up seat back. Rope in first keeps the anchor from falling into the bow sac
  15. FS33 FS44 prop hull burn?

    The plate was on the boat when I bought it, I'm pretty certain the dealer installed. I just put on the 2079 prop because I've been running at 6000' elevation. You have prop burn from a 14"? with the plate you should still be fine with a 14", but maybe some boats vary? I would say my clearance is around 3/8"
  16. FS33 FS44 prop hull burn?

    I have a large plate above the prop on my FS33, still running a 14.5" prop. It's a tight squeeze on clearance, and yes it cavitates on occasion. Haven't had this new prop long enough to get any real data on when it's happening.
  17. Going to be installing a heatercraft 3 port heater in my 2015 this weekend. Does anyone have pictures of their factory installation they could take for me? I know the core goes under the helm, and have pictures of the mounting locations for the outlets, but it would be nice to have a few pictures of the orientation of the core and how the supply/return lines are routed through the boat. Not sure if they stay along the starboard lockers or go under the floor to the engine. Also the mounting location for the switch. I want to keep it as factory looking as possible. Thanks in advance!
  18. Thanks for the replies guys. Started last night and figured my way through part of the installation. I'm going to take some pictures along the way and do a simple write up. I noticed through some online pics that the factory heater has no heat tubes! In taking a look at everything last night, a heat tube will not fit on the step-through location, so I think I found another good spot to put it. Thanks for confirming the switch location stoked, I saw an edge of the plate in a pic, and the plate fits perfect in that location, there's even a prewire for the hot there. I pulled the floor and ran the hoses along the gas tank near the wire harness, hopefully this won't create any issues. It was the most logical direction to go. Hardest part so far has definitely been figuring out the best way to install everything. Going to finish up Sunday with hot tubes and switch install, working today and tomorrow morning.
  19. Just ordered these up for my truck, will be here Monday! That picture was really deceptive, confused me for a second too!
  20. May pics and video thread

    Had a beautiful day two weekends ago-first trip with a group. Good times had by all!
  21. I noticed my can still has the sticker on it, next time I have it out i'll snap a pic. Curious to see if it's the same brand carried at Office Depot
  22. Hey everyone, my first post, but been following for a while. I'm having a little issue and wanted some advice. I have a new Centurion waiting for pickup, but I am having trouble with financing. My credit history, debt to income, and score (almost 800) are great, but the company I worked with for financing said that I couldn't get the loan I need due to no "comparable credit" history. Apparently since the max I have financed in the past hasn't been more than $30k, I can't get a loan for $70k. This is a thing, especially with boat and rv financing. So does anyone know of a lender that doesn't use this factor? The broker I used tried AFI, MD, and USbank. I have some phone calls to make but do not want to keep sending out my info and getting my credit dinged. Thanks!
