I've been away from WakeWorld for about 8 years now. Sold my boat and didn't want to see everybody else enjoying the lake without me. I finally got a "new to me" 2002 Centurion bowrider and am working on updating cosmetics and stereo. It's not a big boat, but it is perfect for me to teach my 2 girls (10 & 7) multiple board sports without intimidating them with a huge wake. No payments goes a long way with me as well considering the water situation in Central California. So far I have tinted the windshield and put on a satin wrap that really updated the style. I forgot how much fun a direct drive is to drive! Working on the stereo, but I'm not doing much this year as I don't want it down during such a short season. I'll get in it a little more this winter. Here is one before pic and a couple of after ones.

That wrap is sick. It completely changed the whole look and attitude of the boat.
What are you referring to about the shorter season in central California, drought?

I bet you'll get a lot of people asking if that is a brand new boat. Looks great.

Thanks guys. I have been planning this wrap all winter and then second guessed myself the minute I dropped it off. Once I saw it I knew that I made the right decision. On the short season, I was meaning very low lakes and they will only go lower as summer goes on.
Big props go to Matt and Josh at MC Graphics in Visalia, CA. They did a great job on the wrap.

Wrap/boat looks great. Really digging the understated look. A lot of the boat wraps are usually
wilder than I would prefer. Enjoy your summer

I'm probably in the minority here but I think it's a shame to cover up gel in that good condition with a cheesy wrap. Boats should always be done in gel, wraps are for free cars and advertisements. Tint looks nice and I've considered doing mine but I'm not sure how bad it would be to look through wearing sunglasses or at dawn/dusk.

Cory, everybody has an opinion and I respect yours too. That is the nice part about a solid color wrap. I can change the color of the boat, but the gel coat stays in great shape. I can go back to yellow and white any time I want. No harm done. The boat was a good friend of mine's and he took great care of it. When it became available, I jumped on it. It was more yellow than I wanted, but you don't get to order your boat from the used boat factory.

I'm normally with you in that camp about not liking wraps and wanting everything to be done in paint and gel, but in this case it actually came out looking clean and not crazy over the top like most wraps do. It is one of the few I actually like. The original styling wasn't bad, but this makes it look a little more modern and was probably much quicker and more cost effective than painting the entire boat like that.
