Baller_ RichardDoane Posted May 20, 2023 Baller_ Share Posted May 20, 2023 great boat for an affordable price, the combination of a 6.0 closed cooling system and ZO Rev S is a sweet pull, 1280 hours but always taken care of, has a fresh set of cat manifolds and all the O2 sensors at 900 hours, Elbert's shaft/coupling kit upgrade, very nice, call/PM me if you need questions answered. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller BGrow76 Posted May 20, 2023 Baller Share Posted May 20, 2023 Sweet boat, would love to see it offered again. Why were the manifolds replaced at 900 hrs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ RichardDoane Posted May 21, 2023 Author Baller_ Share Posted May 21, 2023 @BGrow76 the original manifolds were a flawed casting design, and would crack around the primary 02 sensors, leaking water either into or out of. PCM had to do a redesign and the replacements are the improved design. The parts came from Ski DIM, at about $900. each and that was about 4 years ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller RAWSki Posted May 21, 2023 Baller Share Posted May 21, 2023 Great boat and well cared for by @RichardDoane . We have a similar one with 800 hrs on the east side of the country for sale. The 6L and ZO Rev S make it the perfect training-club boat. Yes @Horton had this one but for a very short time. 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller MitchellM Posted May 31, 2023 Baller Share Posted May 31, 2023 Beautiful boat, but I'm reluctant to spend that money with those hours from a manufacturer that no longer produces ski boats. I'm still looking for a late model, low hours SN200 open bow or Prostar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller bananaron Posted June 1, 2023 Baller Share Posted June 1, 2023 @MitchellM I don't think you have to worry about the fact the boat is no longer being made.You can replace everything on that boat if you have to.I have bought and sold many boats and the CP is one of my favorite boats.I had a 2011 and that was a fantastic ski boat and the wake was flat and an easy boat to ski and drive.Its too bad they are no longer made.Its like the GEKKO line of boats people did not want to buy them for many reasons however both excellent boats . The CP has always been a difficult boat to sell just like the GEKKO. I own a GEKKO and would buy another CP without hesitation..... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Ed_Johnson Posted June 1, 2023 Baller Share Posted June 1, 2023 @bananaron Have always been curious how the Gekko compared in tracking and wake size for slalom against the CP or the Big 3. When I skied behind a CP it had better wakes than my 200, however, it was rather stiff to drive and not quite as reactionary or nimble as the 200.

Baller bananaron Posted June 1, 2023 Baller Share Posted June 1, 2023 @Ed_Johnson The Gekko grr tracks like its on a rail.For me its a great boat with a fantastic wake.My boat is a 2001 and only has the 350 Merc mpi and works for me.However for you Ed it probably would not be great as you are a very good skier.However a 2015 Gekko the last yr they were made with the Indmar 350 and ZO would be a great pull for you.This is a great tracking boat with a very good wake.The CP I THINK HAS A GREAT WAKE AND TRACKS VERY WELL ALSO.I have not driven that boat in the slalom course however owned a 2011 and for me and my ski partners found it to be a excellent ski boat with many good features.I have owned several of the big 3 and still think for me the Gekko or CP would be my choice........I probably would choose the CP as my first choice right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller RAWSki Posted June 2, 2023 Baller Share Posted June 2, 2023 @Ed_Johnsonthe CP is known for great slalom wakes ----- you must have driven a boat with a lot of rudder torque. The Centurion tracks with a good driver --most say it likes to swivel at the pylon--- but it doesn't follow a line quiet as well as a SN 200. Also have to agree with @bananaron the Centurion is no different than a SN196 or MC 190 which are no longer produced---- the boat has a PCM engine and "off the shelf" gauges and throttle. No screens or unique parts. And less Seadeck than it's SN cousins! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller_ RichardDoane Posted June 27, 2023 Author Baller_ Share Posted June 27, 2023 Bump. price reduction to $39,500. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ RichardDoane Posted July 7, 2023 Author Baller_ Share Posted July 7, 2023 another bump, and the deal just keeps getting better $34.5K @Horton and I were talking the other day about lowering the price vs. continuing to use and store. It's better to lower the price a little to see if it will make someone jump in and buy a great boat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
