The 2026 Centurion NV243 is a 24-foot fiberglass cruiser built to accommodate up to 16 passengers and their gear. Part of Centurion's newly expanded NV Series, this model combines the core design philosophy of the line—built from the water up for wave and wake performance—with practical capacity and customization options at an accessible price point.
The boat is powered by a single gasoline engine and features Centurion's Opti-V hull, a modified deep-V design with 20 degrees of deadrise at the transom. The running surface incorporates flat triangular sections at each corner that extend toward the bow, creating lift along the rear half for a level trim both front to back and side to side. This design reduces drag and fuel consumption while improving rough-water handling and noise levels. The hull's hook allows drivers clear sightlines over the bow without compromising wave or wake formation.
Ballast capacity reaches 5,200 pounds distributed across six strategically positioned locations throughout the boat. For 2026, the Fast Mover Ballast System with SeaFlo 13.5 gallon-per-minute pumps reduces fill time by more than 68 percent, enabling quicker setup. The balanced weight distribution maintains a level running attitude with minimal bow rise and supports extended time on the water.
The NV243 delivers the hull efficiency and performance engineering Centurion applies across its range, with the running surface designed to generate lift that reduces engine workload and fuel demand compared to conventional water sports boats.
