ramfill is nice but you are still spending 8 minutes filling the other 5 pnp sacs. no benefit there.
the single screen on the 23 was nice but didn't care for the layout of the dual screen on the 265.
I had a hell of a time seeing over the bow while pulling a surfer in the 23. I wanted to stand up to drive so bad.
if you check out the levers on the sides of the steering wheel on supras, the wires are encased in tubes. noticed the centurion had bare red/blue wires ran from wheel to helm. looked unfinished.
take it or leave it but the speaker pods hanging from the towers were kinda goofy as well. I didn't care for them. the 265 had 2 pods that had 2 rev10's in each and a 6.5 downfiring. they were massive and kinda wierd looking.
bimini's on both boats were from sewlong out of slc and were the largest biminis I have seen. boone's was close but I bet the centurions offered a tad more coverage.
did I say the waves were awesome.......
that said having spent time on centurion and supra same day, I'd take boone's supra all day over the centurions. they were nice but the 23 was pretty optioned out and they said sell price would be in the 130's. msrp was almost 160. pretty nice supra for that money and better overall finish.
and I will say after hearing boone's jbl setup, it flat out pounds with 2 subs.
