Centurion Ri265 (2026-)

Boat History Report Banner Ad

Brief Summary

The Ri265 is the largest vessel from Centurion Boats, a manufacturer with over 50 years of experience building high-performance towed water sports boats since 1976. As a Correct Craft Company, they are driven by a commitment to innovation and excellence, striving to make lives better on the water. This 26.5-foot yacht-certified model is the pinnacle of their design, engineered to create the world's best wakes and waves while ensuring a smooth, confident ride even in choppy conditions. It is specifically designed for the discerning enthusiast who demands both unmatched capability and uncompromising on-water luxury for all-day excursions with a large group.

Engineering Excellence and Custom Comfort

The Ri265 is built around Centurion's exclusive Opti-V Hull, which features a deep 20-degree deadrise and specialized transom corners. This innovative shape naturally displaces significant water for huge waves, provides superior balance, and cuts through rough water for a quiet, efficient cruise.

  • Massive & Quick-Fill Ballast: The boat moves 5,850 pounds of water, all managed by the Fast Mover Ballast System using high-capacity SeaFlo pumps to drastically reduce wait times.
  • RAMFILL Boosted: This sub-floor ballast system fills and drains its large tanks faster than ever, even while the boat is stopped, putting the perfect wave on demand.
  • Precision Wave Shaping: The QuickSurf Pro System uses smart hydraulic rams to instantly create perfectly symmetrical surf waves on either side with fingertip control.

Luxury & Driver Awareness

The entire design elevates the user experience, from plush seating to state-of-the-art controls.

  • Helm Command Center: An intuitive twin 14-inch Captive Touch HD Dash System provides a digital nerve center, giving the driver total, easy control over all boat functions and systems.
  • Enhanced Visibility: The Centurion ROV (Range of View) Dual HD Digital Camera provides real-time awareness of the action behind the boat, while the same system tracks precise fuel usage, promoting better efficiency.
  • Integrated Shade: The optional Predator Power Tower (PPT) is a standout feature, automatically raising and lowering with a fixed bimini that remains parallel to the deck, providing constant shade and integrated lighting.
