With 20 degrees of deadrise at the transom, as much as double the degree of V as any other towboat, the ride is insanely smooth and balanced. Centurion offers the industry\u2019s largest ballast capacities, and depending on the model, it delivers up 5850 pounds of displacement. All this leads to unparalleled wake and waves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">RAMFILL<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Centurion\u2019s exclusive RAMFILL ballast is comprised of two subfloor tooled-in tanks that fill with as much as 2950 pounds of water in as little as 90 seconds. That\u2019s a minute and a half to deliver exactly the wakes you want, whether beginner or seasoned pro. Over a ton of weight. In less than two minutes. Wakes can be adjusted mid-session. Fast. Efficient. The gift of time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">BALLAST WAKES &#038; WAVES<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Centurion offers the industry\u2019s largest and best placed ballast capacities. Depending on the model, you can get up to 5850 pounds of displacement. That means you have the flexibility to dial in the waves and wakes you want. It\u2019s a simple formula: more specifically placed ballast = better waves and wakes. End of story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SAVE AT THE PUMP<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With 20-degrees of deadrise Centurion\u2019s Opti-V hull is the only true deep v hull in the wake boat industry. The deep-v hull design slices through the water and the optimized strakes, and triangular pads create lift getting the heaviest part of the boat, the rear, up out of the water for a level running attitude front to back. This equates to lower RPM even when fully weighted to ride, and more efficient use of the 409 horsepower GM Marine engine marinized by PCM. The new Revo Side by Side Touch Vision dash in the Ri245 and Ri265 provides fuel efficiency data at a glance with first of its kind trip and fuel consumption data, leaving no doubt who has the most efficient wake boat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-layout-2 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">ON THE LEVEL &#8211; QUICK SURF PRO<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In just 1.8 seconds, QuickSurf Pro can move a wave from left to right, even mid-session, with the Revo Side by Side, SxS HD or Split HD Touch Vision dash systems, while keeping the ride level for driver and passengers. Deliberately-shaped stainless blades with turned down and gently arced edges create more lift opposite the surf side, digging in the surf side corner of the hull and displacing water to create a well-defined surf wave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SWEET SURF SPECTRUM<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In sports, the sweet spot is everything. Other boats have one sweet spot \u2014 a position, typically off the back of the swimstep, where there is a constant push. Centurion surf waves offer a spectrum of surfable power from the curl all the way up to the face of the waves. This helps beginners learn to throw the rope, as well as allow seasoned pros to master their next World Championship winning move. Centurion\u2019s surf sweet spot is as much as 26 feet \u2014 wider of a sweet surf spectrum than a single spot.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"1.8 Seconds Wakesurf Transfer Time - Centurion Boats - We&#039;ve Got Your Number\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7qiO5LAGz0I?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"512\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/centurion-boats-info-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-738\" srcset=\"https:\/\/balatonsport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/centurion-boats-info-3.jpg 800w, https:\/\/balatonsport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/centurion-boats-info-3-300x192.jpg 300w, https:\/\/balatonsport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/centurion-boats-info-3-768x492.jpg 768w, https:\/\/balatonsport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/centurion-boats-info-3-234x150.jpg 234w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The evolution of our designs is not just a result of changes in style.
