This Ri245 is spec'd with the full RAMFILL ballast system, the Predator Power Articulating Tower, and a Shelter Green and Onyx Black exterior that looks sharp on any lake.
The foundation of everything the Ri245 does on the water is the Opti-V 2.0 hull. Twenty degrees of deadrise at the transom means this boat displaces serious water before you even start loading ballast, and that translates directly into a bigger, cleaner surf wave with less effort. Centurion claims up to 50% better fuel efficiency compared to other towboats, and in real-world use the ZZ6 backs that up. You're getting 465 ft/lbs of torque and a smooth, quiet ride that pulls well up to 8,000 feet elevation, which matters if you're running Utah's mountain reservoirs.
The RAMFILL Boosted ballast system fills close to 5,650 lbs in under 90 seconds. That's not marketing language; that's the difference between waiting around and getting your next rider in the water. The Quicksurf Pro System handles wave shaping, and the Silent Stinger wake plate manages exhaust without touching the surf wave. What you end up with is a wave that's big, long, and dialed in for whatever your crew needs, whether that's a mellow push for someone learning or a steep, powerful wall for a rider who's been at it for years.
The Predator Power Articulating Tower is one of the things that really sets the Ri series apart. It's a fixed bimini design that raises and lowers at the touch of a button, staying parallel to the floor the whole time so shade coverage stays consistent no matter where the sun is sitting. Four Linak actuators rated at 2,200 lbs each move in sync, and the whole system feels solid. Integrated hangers keep gear off the seats, and the Skylon Spring Lock board racks are right there on the tower where you need them.
Inside, the Mocha and Deep Bronze vinyl with Cool Touch base and hex accents gives the cockpit a warm, upscale feel that wears well in the sun. The two-color Centurion Cut flooring in black ties it together without being busy. Seating is well thought out: the HD sliding bench seat, bow filler cushion, and bow arm rests give everyone a comfortable place to settle in, and the flip-up stadium seats on both port and starboard sides add flexibility depending on how your crew wants to configure the back of the boat. The Cobra Racing driver's seat is genuinely comfortable for long days behind the wheel.
The Icebreaker package comes standard on this unit, which means a heater, heated driver's seat, and wind dam. That's a real feature for early-season mornings or late-September days when the air is cool and everyone wants to stay on the water a little longer. The Revo SxS HD dash keeps everything organized at the helm, Navionics GPS mapping is built in, and the Quad REV-12 stereo setup means the music stays audible even at surf speed with the tower up. RGBW accent lighting runs throughout the boat, and the HD sliding seat limo lighting adds a nice touch after the sun goes down. There's wireless charging built into multiple spots around the cockpit, a magnetic valuables locker at the helm, an in-floor cooler for drinks and snacks, and an integrated walkway trash can. The Range of View camera system gives the driver a clear look at what's happening behind the boat at all times.
The 2027 Ri245 hits a sweet spot in the Centurion lineup: big enough to run serious ballast and carry a full crew, but not so large that it feels like work to drive or manage at the dock. This particular build is fully loaded with the features that make a difference on a full day out, from the Icebreaker package to the RGBW lighting to electric over hydraulic brakes on the trailer. It's backed by a five-year base warranty, five-year engine warranty, and a lifetime limited warranty on the hull, deck, and stringer system.
