Centurion Concourse C4 2009 vs Centurion Escalade C4 2009 — A Close Look at Two Deep Vees

When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Centurion Concourse C4 2009 and the Centurion Escalade C4 2009 are deep vee designs with fiberglass construction — the buying decision usually comes down to a handful of practical questions: how many people are you putting on the water, how far do you trailer, and what does your tow vehicle weigh?

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Centurion Concourse C4 2009 at 23,0 ft versus Centurion Escalade C4 2009 at 22,0 ft. At 42 lbs and 4 lbs respectively, both sit in a similar weight class — either should pair comfortably with most mid-size SUVs and half-ton trucks, though always confirm your specific tow rating with the motor added.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Centurion Concourse C4 2009 is rated for 14 passengers, while the Centurion Escalade C4 2009 caps at 1. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Centurion Concourse C4 2009 could be the deciding factor.

Bottom line: Choose the Centurion Concourse C4 2009 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 14 passengers and at 23,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Centurion Escalade C4 2009 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 1 that costs less to run day-to-day.

Centurion Concourse C4 2009 vs Centurion Escalade C4 2009 — Common Questions

Which is the larger boat — the Centurion Concourse C4 2009 or the Centurion Escalade C4 2009?
The Centurion Concourse C4 2009 is the longer of the two at 23,0 feet overall. The Centurion Escalade C4 2009 comes in at 22,0 feet, making it roughly 1,0 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer — the Centurion Concourse C4 2009 or the Centurion Escalade C4 2009?
For trailering, the Centurion Escalade C4 2009 has the edge at 4 lbs dry weight versus 42 lbs for the Centurion Concourse C4 2009. Add a motor (typically 300–500 lbs for an outboard in this class), gear, and a partial fuel load and the difference grows. Lighter is friendlier on smaller tow vehicles and on fuel economy while hauling.
How many people can each boat hold?
The Centurion Concourse C4 2009 is Coast Guard rated for 14 passengers, while the Centurion Escalade C4 2009 is certified for 1. Note that legal capacity and comfortable capacity aren't always the same thing — on a full day out, most experienced boaters aim for about 80% of the rated number to keep things comfortable.
Which boat is wider, and does it affect trailering?
The Centurion Concourse C4 2009 measures 93" wide, compared to 1" for the Centurion Escalade C4 2009. The US standard-width towing limit is 8’6" (102") in most states — anything over that may need a wide-load permit. Confirm your specific route requirements with each state's DOT.
Which boat has the larger fuel tank — the Centurion Concourse C4 2009 or the Centurion Escalade C4 2009?
The Centurion Concourse C4 2009 has the bigger tank at 46 gallons, versus 36 gallons on the Centurion Escalade C4 2009. That 10-gallon difference translates to roughly 30–50 nautical miles of additional range at cruising speed, depending on motor, load, and conditions.
Are the Centurion Concourse C4 2009 and Centurion Escalade C4 2009 from the same manufacturer?
Yes — both the Centurion Concourse C4 2009 and the Centurion Escalade C4 2009 are built by Centurion. That means shared dealer networks, common parts availability, and consistent build quality across the line. The choice between them is essentially a question of how much boat you need, not which brand you trust.
