The new 08 Centurion web site is really coming along nicely. I bet those new towers are pretty strong – The double tubes are pretty unique.

The towers with the double tubes remind me of those old roll bars on big lifted trucks.

Ayone know what type of wake these boats are throwing yet? How they ride? What type of hull(classic deep V or more like Enzo 216)? Can't beat a 21ftr with a 100 inch beam. MAy have to come back if I move and there is a dealer up there in WI. I know it was aid before but what are these going for with triple ballast, hydro plate, pp, bimini and racks, u know the essentials. Is tandem trailer still standard? BTW BRING BACK RICK! Thanks again for everything brotha! (Message edited by xstarrider on November 01, 2007)

They are the same hull as the 216 only a foot sorter. They are priced right! Team Cbk said they start at just over 36k :-() On this boat the Tandem is not standard http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/3183/500877.html (Message edited by krbaugh on November 01, 2007)

I think the reverse prop rotation has been around since '06. The option lets you choose prop rotation. The SurfRight System must be something different.

I doubt it's a marketing term, not unless 8.1L 420 PHP is also a marketing term. I'm pretty sure they were working with someone on a new idea, I don't know if this is it or not.

Come on, a gear and a prop are not much of a system. The new web site is by far he best I've seen from Centurion. But what they've done here is obfuscate. No outsider will know what a "SurfRight System" is. I think they should go back and show reverse prop rotation under the options list. More people will understand that.

The wedge and smart plate make some sense. It took me about a year to figure out TAPS and the Hydrogate were about. Whoever came up with Star Gazer is just loopy. I have no idea what fct, zero off, sport shift, and smart tow are. Who want’s to be in that group?

I think calling it "surf right" might not be such a bad thing. Sure, people may not know what it is, but by giving it that name it might raise some eyebrows and get people interested enough to want to know more. I definitely think that it falls in the same category as the Wedge, Hydrogate, etc. I guess we'll see!

The marketing guys probably thought "Surf Right System" sounded better than "Goofy Kit"

Well the Air warrior version of the Falcon with a tower 2 ballast tanks and pumps acording to the web site weighs in at 3780. http://www.centurionboats.com/boats/air/Falcon%20V%20Air%20Warrior IF they weight the Falcon Version with no ballast tanks Like LSL requires it might come in around 3400

thats it just a term for goofy rotation marketing girl not guys 8.1L 420 PHP is also a marketing term. what does that mean?? its merc 496 centurion is mma certified they believe posting the most accurate weight possible as the boat is offered with standred equipment you might be able to shave more weight by ordering a falcon without the tower and ballast.....
