We get lots of questions involving engine hours, especially on used or demo boats. Often times we see people looking for boats that are 10 years old with less than 200 engine hours. While that isn’t necessarily a bad thing, it can often lead to people overpaying (sometimes drastically) to get a boat that won’t perform any better or last longer than a boat with higher engine hours.

There’s a widespread misconception regarding engine hours on used boats. The most common question we get regarding used boats is something along these lines: “How many hours are too many hours on a boat?” or “How long will a boat engine last? 900 hours?”

We often get used boats in on trade that have close to 1,000 hours on the engine. People tend to think 1,000 hours is too many, but what is too many? Let’s make a comparison with the automotive industry. We have [...]

RIDE THE LIGHTNING, FEEL THE THUNDER If Zeus himself were to design a boat, what would he build? Something large in stature to establish a dominant presence, high performance level in order to create an exciting experience on the water, huge wakes and thunderous waves, and space to take 15 of his friends and gear along. Supreme did everything in their power to build a boat that accomplishes all of the above to the extent that Zeus would be proud to captain the all new Supreme ZS232!

THE LIMO ON THE WATER Well, Centurion did it again. The success of the Fi series in the 21 and 23 foot categories has led to an all-new 25 foot monster with all of the same characteristics that Centurion is known for in the surf boat category! With seating for up to 17 of your family and friends, this new wake and wave throwing behemoth is truly a force to be reckoned with on the water! The beauty of this boat is that you can have your cake and eat it too.

Utilizing a max ballast capacity of 5,050 lbs and a dry weight of 5,850 the Fi25 throws world class wakes and waves. Other innovations that set the Fi25 apart: Ramfill- This system allows you to fill the majority of your ballast in under 90 seconds. Quick Surf- Our surf system gives more configurabili [...]

Is there really such thing as a boat that can wakeboard, surf, AND ski? Many people are skeptical that one boat can simply do it all. If you look at the boats designed for skiing, they have a drastically different running surface than the boats designed for wakesurfing.

How can you make a boat that’s fun to ski behind and surf behind? There are two ways that boat manufacturers are making boats that can both ski and surf well.

1. Put a surf system and ballast on a boat with a flat hull
2. Put a surf system, ballast and XL trim plate on a boat with a [...]
