Supporting Member Than_Bogan Posted June 6, 2013 Supporting Member Share Posted June 6, 2013 "competition" is spelled incorrectly both times in the listing. Maybe intentional to be able to weasel out of any false advertising claims?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller jcamp Posted June 6, 2013 Author Baller Share Posted June 6, 2013 @Than_Bogan if I buy this will it fit through your tunnel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller estrom Posted June 6, 2013 Baller Share Posted June 6, 2013 I thought all DD's were "competion" boats!? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporting Member Than_Bogan Posted June 6, 2013 Supporting Member Share Posted June 6, 2013 @jcamp That depends on how many pieces you cut it into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller ral Posted June 6, 2013 Baller Share Posted June 6, 2013 It must be a great "Competion" ski boat. It comes with the original manual, so I do not know why doubts arise in this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Chef23 Posted June 6, 2013 Baller Share Posted June 6, 2013 That thing is going to throw a monster wake. @jcamp there is no way that comes through the tunnel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller A_B Posted June 6, 2013 Baller Share Posted June 6, 2013 Could just be me, but when you have a fish finder mounted on the dash, I start to question "ski" boat.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller thager Posted June 6, 2013 Baller Share Posted June 6, 2013 What do you need a fish finder for? Everyone knows the fish are always under those orange, yellow and GREEN balls!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller estrom Posted June 6, 2013 Baller Share Posted June 6, 2013 Wasn't there someone here not too long ago asking about fish finders or trolling motors for their Nautique? A true multi-purpose boat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ampacdan Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 That is no fish finder - it is a beta version of zero off - only works with 4 barrel carb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doonez Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Has a compass on the dash so that you can find your way back to the dock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDNAH2OSKIER Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Its a Century Arabian I believe, def, not a competition tow boat, my neighbor at the lake has one, his, unlike this one, is mint and is a very cool boat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madcityskier Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Yes on Arabian. Not a bad surf boat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller XR6Hurricane Posted June 7, 2013 Baller Share Posted June 7, 2013 You guys are just plain cruel. On a side note, Century DID pull a lot of competitions before most of us were born. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller otisg Posted June 8, 2013 Baller Share Posted June 8, 2013 XR6Hurricane - I am old enough to remember quite a few tournaments that were pulled by 17' Mahogany Resorters but then again I am older than dirt.... I have often joked that crossing those wakes was like climbing the Berlin Wall - then I realized nobody knew what that was either... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDNAH2OSKIER Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 @Hurricane, those were bad ass. I had a girlfriend who had one and the throttle was a big ass knob on the dash that you pushed in to accelerate. The wake was for shit though. Not like they had anything worth skiing on back then anyway ; ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller XR6Hurricane Posted June 8, 2013 Baller Share Posted June 8, 2013 LOL @otisg and @SDNAH2OSKIER. That era of horrible wakes lasted a lot longer than most guys will admit, especially for long line, slower speed recreational skiers. I remember getting pulled by a '78 Nautique at about 28 mph. Thought I was gonna die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller thager Posted June 8, 2013 Baller Share Posted June 8, 2013 It was always interesting to see a new skier at a tournament that had never skied an inboard back then. Many would launch out of their bindings going through the gates or from 1 to 2 ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Razorskier1 Posted June 8, 2013 Baller Share Posted June 8, 2013 @thager -- don't laugh. My first tournament I had never really skied a course much and always skied behind my Centurion Barefoot Warrior. They pull up a Supreme. I'm skiing 15 off at 28mph. Pull out and turn for the gates -- I hit the wake (which looked like a wall to me) and landed on my face somewhere near the one ball. Score zero! Ouch.
