2026 Photo Shoot Momentum
We just finished with our 4th photo shoot gathering photography and video content for model year 2026. I have been a part of 27 years of photo shoots in this industry and I have learned they can either slightly accentuate momentum or completely stop it. I have never been a part of a shoot that seems to create its own. This year I am seeing this miracle of the marine industry take place. We are manufacturing momentum at photo shoots!
Photo shoots are simply a pain in the butt! They take months to plan, require the coordination of upwards of 50 people, not to mention a dozen boats, and can be brought to a full stop by a number of extenuating circumstances of which we normally don't have any control. This year we have dealt with bad weather, Golden Muscle checks, talent/ athlete/ crew delays, boat challenges and lack of accommodations. These challenges do not take into account the normal rigors of a boat photo shoot, like being at the dock each morning by 4:50am and not heading to bed each night until 11 at the earliest. Plus somewhere in the middle of all of these challenges we need to execute our strategy for creating the content that will allow us to market Centurion and Supreme boats to create opportunities for boat sales through the next model year.
In spite all of this potential for difficulty, Centurion and Supreme brand momentum is being continually creating by our photo shoot team. This instrumental team begins with the Marketing Department, Ancelle Contreras, Ken Scribner, Taylor Manzanedo and Alexis Machado. The preparation and dedicated follow-through of this team serves as the example for everyone else who participates in a shoot. They lead by example and through service while making sure we accomplish the goal of creating content that showcases the customer benefits our boats provide to create enthusiasm for our brands. I know they are all amazing leaders because they manage to create enthusiasm with the rest of the photo shoot team in the midst of never-ending challenges.
The entire Marketing Team prepares for the photo shoots months ahead of time with a marketing plan that grows into a detailed shot list with very specific talent and location specifications. At the photo shoot, Ancelle manages the photo crew, while Ken, our cowboy-of-all-trades, drives the chase boat or the truck for photos. Taylor manages our amazing video crew during very long days on the water and Alexis moves back and forth between the two crews, when she is not facilitating meals and other accommodations. They do all of this while managing their daily Marketing tasks. All four of them would also say that they couldn't do what they do without the unbelievable factory support they receive. From having Devin Wahlberg and Zach Haubrich in Product Development to Tino Chavez towing boats back and forth to Lavon Wallace prioritizing photo boat production with his crew, our factory team plays a huge part in the momentum of a photo shoot.
The partners we entrust Centurion & Supreme Boats content creation to are more like family than business associates. I have worked with Devon Uderitz, our art director, Rob Snow, our still photographer, and Dale Goff, our studio photographer, for 25 plus years. They are incredible individuals and amazingly talented, but they will be the first to tell you that photo shoots can wreck brand momentum and especially team moral. Bill McCaffray and Cole Vanthof from Alliance are newer partners, but they are no strangers to boat photo shoots and the challenges. Cole is a gifted videographer, but if conditions are not created for him to capture the footage he needs, video production sentiment goes downhill fast.
These partners are seasoned veterans when it comes to boat photo shoots, they have extremely high expectations and know there is a high probability of failure if a shoot is run poorly. Each of these discerning partners have made individual comments to me during these last four photo shoots praising the Centurion & Supreme Boats Team on a job well done. And I guess that could be seen as lip service since we are paying them, but considering their levels of production and demeanors during the shoots, I know their praise is genuine. Thanks to the efforts of our Marketing, PD&E and Production Teams these artists are able to execute the strategy we have laid out and they are excited about the content they are creating. This enthusiasm is infectious and it creates momentum that not only permeates the photo shoots themselves, but extends well into post production and publishing.
When photo and video crews are feeling this level of stoke in such challenging circumstances it infects our photo and video subjects with same enthusiasm. We would not have any content to capture without our dedicated team of athletes and in many cases their families. Ken and Alexis have coordinated approximately 40 of our athletes and their families to attend the on-water shoots. They take time out of their busy schedules to help us capture pro-level wake surfing, wakeboarding and lifestyle content centered around our boats. These athletes and their family members also help us keep the boats in tip top shape through the photo shoot by loading, unloading, cleaning, gassing and helping us maintain the boats. The entire Centurion & Supreme Boats photo shoot family also helps organize and cook meals. It is truly a team effort!
Thank you Team Centurion!

After having been with this group through the thick and thin of the photo shoot, I know it is this team that manufactures momentum for Centurion & Supreme Boats. The photos and video are of course incredible and they create momentum, but it is stories of tribulation and triumph that we all share after the shoot is over that grows our momentum exponentially!
It takes all of us and I could not be more proud to be a part of the Centurion & Supreme Boats Team continuing to manufacture momentum! I hope you all continue to tell these stories of manufacturing momentum so we can keep this thing going! Thank you all for everything you do to make lives better!

May 2025 DNL: President’s Letter
Dear Valued Partners,
As we move through May and head into summer, I want to take a moment to recognize the challenges we’ve all faced. Tariff changes, economic uncertainty, and some tough weather across many regions have made it harder for customers to make buying decisions. I know it’s been a bit of a rollercoaster, but I believe this is just a temporary slowdown. Centurion and Supreme are in a great position to come out of this even stronger. Our boats bring something special to the table. The quality, the performance, and the overall experience our brands offer are second to none. Customers will recognize that value, especially as the market bounces back.
Now is the time to stay focused and keep showing customers why Centurion and Supreme are the best choices out there. I believe we’ll see an uptick in sales as we head into the summer months. When the dust settles, we’ll not only have weathered this storm but will be in a great position to grow.
I also want to remind you that Model Year 26’ is just around the corner, and we’re excited to showcase new features and updates for both Centurion and Supreme. There’s a lot to look forward to, but we also need to finish out the current season strong. Please make sure to get your reorders in soon to take advantage of available rebates and incentives. Let’s finish June on a high note.
I appreciate all the hard work you’re putting in. Thank you for being part of the Centurion and Supreme family. Together, we’ve got a bright road ahead.
Wishing you a successful and exciting summer season.

Centurion & Supreme Boats Welcomes New Dealer-Cal State Wake
(March 19, 2025) Castaic, CA— Centurion & Supreme Boats are thrilled to announce Cal State Wake as its newest dealer. Ideally located at the southern end of California’s Grape Vine and a few minutes from Six Flags Magic Mountain, Cal State Wake has opened its doors for business.
Matt Draves, Owner of Cal State Wake, has built his team with experienced industry professionals and boating enthusiasts. Between the three service team members he hired, there are over 60 years of experience. His team is built around people who work hard and have built a reputation across the industry for being top-tier service staff.
“I’ll be working front of house from sales to administrative work. Service makes the world go round so I hired 3 guys that I worked with previously. I’m hiring people that I know will make us successful,” Draves states.
Matt has been in the industry for five years but has been a boating enthusiast for 30 years. With his experience in sales across other industries and his love for boating and the marine industry, Matt looks forward to what he can do to grow his new business.
“There is an upper echelon in tow boats, and I saw this great opportunity. Before COVID hit I worked in sales for another industry. When COVID hit, we were shut down,” Matt shares. “We want to be the local dealership and create a good following. Long term, LA and SoCal is a large market, and we want to grow.”
Cal State Wake will serve Southern California Centurion & Supreme Boats owners and buyers.
“Our Centurion & Supreme brands are extremely happy to have Cal State Wake serving the Southern California market. With a lot of wisdom from Matt Draves in the sales department and an excellent service team headed by Brady Hale, I am fully confident that Cal State Wake is going to do great things for their customers. I am excited for this partnership that is going to take the brands to new heights in the So-Cal area,” Nick Singer, Centurion & Supreme Boats Inside Sales Manager and California Sales Representative shares.
“I’m just a 51-year-old kid. There is serenity in being on the water and that’s taken precedence in my life. I love the anticipation of my turn coming to get to ride behind the boat. I love hanging out with my friends and family. That feeling never gets old,” Matt says.

Manufacturing Momentum: Tariffs
Albert Einstein said, "In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity." I believe we have harnessed this mindset to manufacture the current momentum we are enjoying. We are going to continue to take this approach with new challenges we face including tariffs.
Centurion & Supreme Boats is maximizing transparency in hopes of earning even more trust with you our dealer network. While we cannot control the implementation of tariffs or their amounts, we can commit to communicating these exact increases without margining them up. And when the tariffs are repealed, we will remove them from your invoices. We will also continue to invest in the expansion of USA Made parts and materials in Centurion and Supreme Boats. Just like our development of the "Made in America" Predator Power Tower with Roswell, we are prioritizing domestically produced goods. I encourage all of you to approach the challenge to boat sales that tariffs could pose with your customers in a similar way.
Tariff Opportunities
- Offer an opportunity to your customers to purchase Centurion or Supreme boats before tariffs to save thousands of dollars.
- Your inventory Centurions and Supremes do not have a tariff applied.
- 2025 Centurions and Supreme built through June 2025 will NOT carry tariffs.
- Even if we are charged tariffs on parts and materials prior to new model year production we will NOT be passing those costs on to you or your customers.
- For those customers who will wait to purchase 2026MY Centurions and Supremes, take the opportunity to build trust with them by showing the exact tariffs they will be paying on their purchase.
- You could also benefit from the fact that 2025 or older Centurion & Supreme Boats do not have tariffs and should carry a sales incentive (Water Proof Tour Sales Event) so you can hold margins on your new 2026MY boats.
We are going to take every opportunity to further our momentum by controlling what we can, especially in the presence of adversity. Keep manufacturing momentum!

Dear Centurion & Supreme Boats Family,
The weather is heating up across the country and so are boat sales! Retail activity is gaining momentum as we head into peak season, and we’re excited to see inventory moving across our dealer network. Thank you for your continued efforts to connect families with the water this spring.
At the factory, we’re ramping up right alongside you. We've recently brought on new team members to help support consistent, high-quality production. Our daily commitment remains strong: to build four premium boats a day, each crafted with precision and pride. Quality drives everything we do, and we're grateful for your partnership in bringing that standard to life on your showroom floors.
This year we're also proud to continue using our boats as more than just vessels for fun as they are also a tool for purpose. Through partnerships with organizations like Operation Wake Surf, Operation Get Out, In His Wakes Ministries, and Ride Inspired, we’re helping people heal, connect, and find joy on the water. These collaborations allow us all to be part of something bigger as we continue to focus on impacting lives and strengthening communities across the country.
As we enter the heart of the season, thank you again for your trust, your hard work, and your shared passion for the water. Let’s keep the momentum going and make this a season to remember.

Centurion & Supreme Western Sales Manager Wins WSIA Leadership Award
(February 27, 2025) Breckenridge, CO-The annual Water Sports Industry Association (WSIA) Summit held in Breckenridge, CO concluded with the WSIA Leadership Awards last night. WSIA develops best practices, maintains waterway access rights, educates participants, promotes safety, and facilitates sustainable industry growth. After two days of committee meetings and keynote presentations advocating for tow water sports, five individuals from across the industry received a WSIA Leadership Award for their contributions. Among this small exclusive group recognized was Gerry Oppliger, Centurion & Supreme Boats Western Sales Manager.
Year after year, the WSIA Leadership Awards recognizes the most impactful leaders in the watersports industry. The award recipients were selected from 16 finalists who have made significant contributions to the water sports industry.
“It’s amazing to be amongst a group of people who have the same direction to grow the sport and keep families on the water.” Gerry shared while talking about his fellow nominees.
Gerry’s contributions to the industry go beyond his work as a representative of the Centurion & Supreme factory. Because of his work and impact on the industry, it was no surprise that Gerry was nominated for this award by most of the dealerships he works with day to day.
“Advocating for my dealers and the growth of the industry is something I’m passionate about. I was honored to be nominated but was more excited to be amongst leaders of our industry who were also being recognized.” Gerry mentioned.
Congratulations, Gerry!
Centurion & Supreme Boats Dealership Owner Wins WSIA Leadership Award
(February 27, 2025) Breckenridge, CO- Jeff Husby, President/CEO of Centurion & Supreme Boats dealerships WaterSports Central and GM/Owner of Regal & Nautique of Orlando received a 2025 WSIA Leadership Award. Jeff oversees six locations across Georgia, South Carolina, Tennesee and Florida. He is known across the industry for his leadership and focus on culture and teamwork.
“I’m beyond excited. Receiving this award was kind of a culmination of a lot of other awards. A month ago, we were inducted into the Boating Industry Hall of Fame Top 100,” shared Jeff.
Jeff is a strong leader in the watersports industry and continues to redefine customer experience. He is a strong advocate for WSIA involvement and actively participates himself. He wrote the first Wake Responsibly Compliance Exam and collaborates with the WSIA Government Affairs team to address wake legislation.
“WSIA is the governing body of our watersports industry and it’s important that we [dealers] are involved. I think a lot of our industry dealers are unaware of what the WSIA means to our business, and it is important that dealers get involved because a lot of what they do is a foundation of our business,” Jeff states.
Not only is Jeff a leader in the industry, but he is also a leader of his staff at his dealerships, Watersports Central and Regal & Nautique of Orlando. Jeff and his team recently built a cutting-edge new location in Orlando for Regal & Nautique proving that investing in your team and your business can yield great results.
To others who hope to be at the top of the boating industry someday, Jeff shares, “You have to continually think outside the box and be innovative and sometimes disruptive to be able to achieve goals.”
