So I take it you want us to flood the centurion thread with Calabrias. Oh yea I didn't see one. You better go start one. Make sure you name it CHOPPER GUN BOATS.

From the Centurion Website:
"On a Centurion boat, all pinstripes and graphics (with the exception of the boat name) are a part of the boat’s gelcoat. After the color is sprayed, tri-directional fiberglass, mat and roving are then hand-applied, producing the finest hull, deck and inner liner (stringer) in the world."
From the Calabria Website:
"Calabria utilizes a complicated 3-step lamination schedule calling upon bi-directional, multi-directional and woven roving cloths which are lighter and stronger than the primitive chopper-gun process which causes disproportionate glass-to-resin ratio's and, in effect, weakens your boat."
Sorry, dude. Doesn't look much different. Looks like Calabria knows a lot about the chopper gun process though...Odd.
At least I've got a proper V-drive in mine. Youch!
Cool

RanMan- How does it look like Calabria knows about the chopper gun again you make no sense.

Yet another boat war in the making Mad

......

I'm with Phaeton on this one, the quality of a boat really shines after some serious hours of skiing or boarding are put on it and the boat still performs like new, with no major problems.

Can't we just enjoy some sweet pics of some sweet boats without getting into a pissing contest.. Question

Calabria doesnt have issues??? What kind of issues does the centurion have after 200+ hours that calabria doesnt? This Is going to be good Twisted Evil

I had my 2000 Sport Comp XTS for 190 hours and I did not have one single issue with anything. The boat looked just like new when I traded it in for exactly what I paid for it after taxes.

The only issue that I have ever heard about was a customer that was unhappy with the tower on his boat. It was a dolfun tower and I didn't like mine either. The tower was not Calabrias problem. It was a matter of preferance. I could have gotten any tower and I chose that one and I will say that it was a mistake but I am not going to blame the boat company.

C-Stone- As we've seen in the past you dont know anything about Calabria's so you should just stay out of this discussion and go play with a Gekko.

Sanger is my boat of choice and Im not always riding the name, Tell me does it feel good? or do you just manage. Cal- ohhhh-bria

CALABRIA4LIFE · Posted: Apr 29, 2003 12:24 pm Post subject:

Although Sangers are nice boat they've had the same hulls for how long? I guess that would'nt matter if you don't wakeboard and didn't need a good wake. Tell me C-Stone how much is the gatling gun option on a Sanger these days and whats wrong with your head in the picture?

C-Stone · Posted: Apr 29, 2003 12:36 pm Post subject:

Why change it if its done right the first time??? ummmmm how many years is behind the name??? Where did calabria get there hulls??? Bought??? Where???

CALABRIA4LIFE · Posted: Apr 29, 2003 12:44 pm Post subject:

It is funny that you knew nothing about Calabrias and ballast and .... and... and... a couple of months ago and now your the expert. on them. Why dont you start a Sanger thread Woody?

That is one sweet Calabria V-drive in Yellow. Now that's a WB Boat. XXXL, is that your boat? Great colors and look. As for the V-drive comment, Cal Air03 has a DD in his and is forever dissing everyone elses boat. So that's where I got the V-drive comment. Peace. Cool

C-Stone · Posted: Apr 29, 2003 2:28 pm Post subject:

Is that the best you have? I dont want to be a cal-oooh-bria expert, theres already to many of them...

CALABRIA4LIFE · Posted: Apr 29, 2003 2:43 pm Post subject:

Not experts just happy customers who take pride in their boats and would like to pass it on to every other Tom,Dick, and Harry on this board who is the same way about their boat. And we wouldnt want to have you relaying false information anyways so its all good.

Here is my friend's boat before he replaced the POS Metcraft tower - the new one looks a lot better and doesn't rattle and shake like the old one.

Hey Cal Air,
Nice Boat. Cool graphics. Not sure about the DD though, but I may just be a v-drive snob anyway. Where'd you get that mirror? I like the mount there I think. How well does it work? Is it stable? Inquiring minds want to know... Cool
