FEATURES AND OPTIONS
Thoughtful Features And Desirable Options
We offer a long list of desirable options to enable you to customize your boat to match your needs. Here are a few popular choices.
Take a Walkthrough
The Opti-V hull incorporates a 20-degree deadrise angle at the transom, creating exceptional water displacement even before additional ballast is loaded. This deep-V configuration maintains outstanding stability in rough water conditions while delivering the clean, powerful waves Centurion is known for.
Flat triangular sections extend from each transom corner toward the bow, generating lift along the boat’s rear section. This design creates a balanced, level running position both longitudinally and laterally. The result is improved fuel efficiency and a quieter ride compared to other high-performance boats in this class.
The integrated hook design at the delta pad’s rear edge allows drivers to maintain clear forward visibility while towing riders, without sacrificing wave quality or riding attitude. Additionally, the hull’s shape deflects incoming rollers at both bow and transom points, ensuring rough water conditions won’t interrupt your session. The Opti-V Hull consistently produces superior waves, wakes, and ride quality across all water conditions.
Centurion’s ballast system goes beyond capacity—it’s strategically engineered. Water weight is distributed uniformly from bow to stern, spreading displacement across the entire running surface. This creates extended, cleaner waves while maintaining a level attitude that keeps the bow down and the driver’s sightlines clear.
The design benefits everyone aboard—driver, rider, and passengers alike. The Ri230 features up to seven strategically positioned ballast zones that collectively manage 5,400 pounds of water. For 2026, Centurion includes the standard Fast Mover Ballast System by SeaFlow, reducing fill times by over 68%. Ri Series models take performance further with 30-gallon-per-minute Fast Mover pumps on rear bags combined with RAMFILL Boosted technology. Matched with a 23-foot hull engineered for performance and capacity for 14 people, you get consistent waves that maintain energy from sunrise to sunset.
The Opti-V hull’s engineering demonstrates how smart design improves efficiency. The triangular sections built into the rear corners and extending forward create lift and stability during operation, significantly reducing water resistance and boosting fuel economy—more than 50% better than comparable sport boats.
Superior fuel efficiency means extended time on the water and reduced operating costs. The hull design minimizes drag while maintaining a level running attitude, allowing the engine to move the boat through water with less effort, whether weighted for riding or running light. Real-time fuel consumption data is available through the Captive SXS HD Touch Vision Dash’s Range of View (ROV) system, letting you monitor this impressive efficiency advantage.
The Ri Series features upgraded RAMFILL performance—aptly named RAMFILL Boosted. This advanced subfloor ballast system delivers 2,500 to 3,000 pounds of displacement with dramatically improved fill and drain speeds, functioning even when the boat is stationary.
With Boost activation, fill times drop by up to 45 seconds—cutting previous system times in half. This means minimal waiting and maximum riding time, with waves ready before you finish prepping your gear. The system utilizes four stainless steel two-inch ball valves—no plastic components—paired with massive tanks extending from helm to transom on both sides. Weight remains low and evenly distributed, producing longer waves, balanced running characteristics, and zero bow lift.
The premium Predator Power Tower is an Ri Series exclusive feature. This sophisticated tower includes a fixed bimini that raises and lowers via button control, maintaining parallel alignment with the deck to provide consistent shade regardless of sun position.
Four heavy-duty Linak actuators, each rated for 2,200 pounds, operate synchronously for smooth, stable motion. Integrated storage hangers keep wet towels, vests, and ropes organized and off seating areas, while downlighting enhances visibility during evening sessions. The 2026 model introduces an HD digital camera integrated into the tower structure, providing the driver with real-time visibility of activity behind the boat. Features include a convertible bimini with zip-open sections for additional sun exposure, BombShell 2.0 board racks, and optional high-performance audio systems. This tower combines aggressive styling with functionality that outperforms the competition.
