Century Ski Boats

It all began in 1920, when Century Boat Company was established in the city of Milwaukee in Wisconsin. They have built a solid reputation for making durable and high quality boats that they were able to procure a contract with the military to produce more than three thousand boats for the Second World War.

Eighty years later, Century Boat Company is still producing their excellent products including an entire line of different ski boats. The new Century ski boats are seventeen feet to a whopping thirty-two feet long, all with the features and specifications for suited for water sports and water skiing enthusiasts.

So what makes Century ski boats unique? First of all, let us check out their interiors. The Century ski boats are equipped with what they call a “Power Command Center” which is basically the engine, battery and electrical systems. They were designed in such a way that the battery systems charge automatically while the engine is running. Electrical circuit breakers are also strategically located in one user-friendly place.

All the electrical systems within the boat are advanced and high-tech, they are also waterproof so that you do not have to worry about getting electrocuted when you are handling them. They are also extremely user-friendly as they are color coded as well.

All the Century ski boats have a Rigid Integrated Beams or an RIB system. This system provides for a stronger hull. However, this does not add to the weight of the boat. The hulls are also made from bronze, so that there is increased reliability below the water line.

Meanwhile, above the water line, the hulls are made of stainless steel and stalon. All boats are coated with a premium, high flex Armorcote or Image gel coat. This makes for boats that can withstand harsh water and weather conditions while still maintaining a sleek appearance.
Inside the boat, the seats and furniture are upholstered with hand-laid engineered fabrics. The hull strokes meanwhile are laminated with biased fiberglass cloth. This gives the hull strokes amazing strength and protection.

The deck to hull bonding is extremely strong as well, as methyl-methacrylate structural adhesive was used as well. And all the fiberglass components of the boats are made from stress-resistant, reinforced multidirectional fiberglass to ensure superior strength and performance. The transoms are made from urethane and will not rot. All fasteners are chrome-plated and epoxy coated.

Another great feature of the Century ski boats is that you have the option to install an Edson steering wheel. Edson steering wheels are made from 316 solid stainless steel, which has a power knob so that maneuvering the boat is easy and quick.

These boats are ultra-luxe too. They all feature a Century E-Box, wherein you can drive the boat fast while towing water sports equipment and still listen to your music. You can even connect your iPod or MP3 player so that you can enjoy your own play lists on board. Air conditioning is also available on select models so that you can be assured of maximum comfort even under the sun. If the weather turns cool, they can provide heating systems as well.

There is really no excuse to not check out Century ski boats if you are on the market for a high quality and superior boat today.
