AS SEEN IN THE JAN/FEB 2008 ISSUE
Delivering the
American dream!
Head-turning lines and built to perform, Century’s 2901 CC
has quickly become the cornerstone in the company’s line-up - one that fulfills
the needs of competitive and recreational offshore anglers. Loaded with a list
of standard amenities, it seems nothing on this newly-designed boat was
overlooked, especially storage. The 2901 features a pair of 277-quart insulated
cockpit boxes, two in-deck 60-quart boxes and two 60-quart boxes under the bow
seats. If all that weren’t enough, a full arsenal of terminal gear can be stowed
in lockable port and starboard tilt-out tackle trays. Comfort wasn’t overlooked
either as captain and crew remain well-protected under the standard hard-top equipped
with electronics box, lights and additional rod holders.
Notable is the smartly-designed
console featuring glove box, footrest, more dry storage, tilt steering,
stainless-steel cup holders and steering wheel, compass and Yamaha Command Link
gauges. Century engineers took extra time in designing the 2901 and as with all Century boats, this versatile fish boat is stocked
with safety features, including stainless steel cleats with thru-bolted backing
plates, bilge pumps, Century’s V-Tech construction process, instrument panels
with U.V. protective clear coat, lighted rocker switches with weather resistant
circuit breakers, a self bailing cockpit, fresh and saltwater wash-down systems
and much more - all backed by a 100-percent transferable protection plan
which you guessed it…also comes standard.

About the Company:
Century Boats has been manufacturing quality performance fishing and pleasure
boats for over 80 years. By 1937, they already offered 28 models for buyers to
choose from. Interestingly, during the 1940s, Century was awarded a government
contract to build 3600 boats for WWII, earning the brand the Army/Navy E
Citation. Jumping ahead a bit, in March of 2005, Century Boats sold Cobia Boats
who they merged with in 1995 - forming C&C Manufacturing. Today, their
slogan is “One Brand One Vision.”
Through the decades, the Century philosophy has always remained
the same - to design and manufacture high quality vessels for boaters and
anglers who demand fishability, luxury and reliability. Sea trial a Century today
and see for yourself why Century boat owners are some of the most loyal in the
industry.
