Features & Technology
The Ri245 is built around Centurion's Opti-V 2.0 hull, and what that means on the water is a surf wave that's bigger, longer, and more customizable than what you'll find anywhere else in this class. With 5,650 lbs of ballast on tap through the Ramfill system, you're filling nearly 6,000 lbs of water in seconds. No waiting around, no wasted time at the start of a set. You flip a switch, the wave is ready, and your rider is in the water.
The ZZ6 is the engine we spec for this boat nine times out of ten. It's a 6.2L with 465 ft/lbs of torque and the PowerPull Transmission, and it pulls hard whether you're at sea level or up at elevation here in Utah. It's smooth, it's quiet, and it gives you everything you need without overcomplicating things. The Predator Power Tower is the real deal too: a fixed bimini that raises and lowers with a button press, four heavy-duty actuators moving in sync, and integrated board racks that keep your gear organized and off the seats.
At 16 hours, this boat has barely been broken in. The Opti-V hull's fuel efficiency advantage over other towboats is real, and you'll feel it over a full season on the water. The factory warranty is still very much in play here, covering the hull and stringer system for life, and the engine and trailer for five years.
Interior & Comfort
The brown vinyl against the black interior gives this boat a warm, clean look that holds up beautifully in person. Inside, the Ri245 is set up to handle a full day on the water without anyone feeling cramped or forgotten. The Cobra Racing driver's seat is genuinely the most comfortable seat I've sat in on any towboat, and the flip-up transom seating means your crew can hang off the back comfortably while someone's in the water. The sliding bench seat and flow-through windshield keep air moving through the cockpit on warm days.
The heater is a feature that matters more than people expect until they're out on a cold September morning or trying to squeeze in one more weekend in October. The Warrior audio package delivers serious sound across the whole boat. Add in the wireless charging holders throughout the cockpit and transom, RGBW accent lighting, the integrated in-floor cooler, and a built-in trash can that actually gets used, and you have a boat that's been thought through from the rider's perspective and the family's.
Why This Boat?
Sixteen hours on a 2024 Ri245 is about as close to new as a pre-owned boat gets, and it comes with the triple axle trailer, the Warrior audio package, and all the factory coverage still intact. This is a boat someone bought, loved, and barely used. For a family ready to make the most of their summers on the water, it's a rare find at this condition and price point.
Perfect For
- Families who want a top-tier surf wave without the new-boat wait
- Riders of all skill levels, from a spouse just learning to surf to teenagers pushing their progression
- Buyers who want factory warranty coverage and like-new condition without paying new-boat money
