Unique custom 30' Ski Centurion "Catalina 30" offshore.
Built by the Ski Centurion factory to enter the 1992 Catalina waterski race. Had twin outboards and went 100mph. I've owned it since then, and converted into a pleasure boat. It now has single big block 454 Chevy V8 and Bravo outdrive, 55mph- but could be converted back to outboards if speed's your deal.
Can seat 11 people in the main cockpit, but realistically ~8 is more comfortable. More seating/sleeping/storage area underneath bow.
Deep V hull handles waves and wakes easily, and turns on a dime.
Hydraulic trim tabs work but I've only used them out past the Golden Gate bridge in heavy waves.
Ideal for the Northern California Delta, where we used it to ski behind for years. Has swim step and retractable ski pole.
Spare props, anchor, waterskis, kneeboard, wakeboard, ropes, life jackets, new inner tube (still in box), paddles, etc., etc. incuded.
Steel dual-axle Ziemann trailer, quad disc brakes (inertial, not electric), some rust but still usable as is. Could use new tires ($65 each at America's tires) for a long trip.
6500 lbs trailer+boat.. Can be towed behind a full size truck (we took it to Lake Powell a few times) and use my V6 Tacoma going to the Delta.
Last used a couple of months ago and everything ran fine. Photos are old and it's in covered storage right now so it's hard to get new ones, but I'll get some next time we take it out.
There is minor wear and tear, but nothing terrible. It's still a head-turner. No tunes: it needs a couple of speakers replacing, and we haven't used the amplifier in ages.. We used an old CD "Walkman" as a source!
Although everything works, it would be wise to do some routine maintenance.
Only selling as we've run out of storage and are getting too old to waterski. I have pinks and registration on both is current.
Smaller red Mirage is for sale too- see my other ad.
Thanks for looking.
