Looking at a 1970 Century MK2

the first boat i owned was a early 70's Century with a v-drive, that was 15 or so ...sh*t 20 years ago. dont remember much and wake surfing just started and we used it to ski and tube, i think it had a Ford 302 in it. from memory it seemed like a nice sturdy hull and what killed it was a ski line got caught around the output shaft of the trans at full speed, we left the filler piece between the seats out, and the tube was on the engine hatch and it sucked it all the way in and popped the tubed, luckily nobody's body parts were in the line. we didnt winterize that winter and that was the end of it

Well built and nice upholstery. I alway liked the early fiber Centurys.

Paul, A 1973 just sold here at The Antique boat center in Cin. Oh. The asking price was $8900. Scott

This thing is in Really good shape!!

Still has the original decals and low hours.

Also has a brand new trailer underneath.

The guy i think is the original owner an very anal about the boat.....for example.....he had dated everything on the motor with a label maker when it was replaced.......Motor looks like brand new......will find out tommorow if he will sell and final price?

Oh .....The boat is red with black stripes and the interior has black seats....

My neighbor has a red 70 340 mkII than I work on for him.

Too much iron the rear and too much bow rise for my taste, but its a cool boat. Porpoises some.
Lots of potential.

Doesn't steer for sh*t.

PITA to set alignment.

BTW, no 1970 new-to-you boat is reliable. A full going through is required then you still may be surprised.
