Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Century Boats 2901 Center Console 2013 vs Century Boats 3200CC 2006 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Century Boats 2901 Center Console 2013 vs Century Boats 3200CC 2006 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Century Boats 2901 Center Console 2013 at 29,3 ft versus Century Boats 3200CC 2006 at 32,0 ft. At 7 lbs and 85 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.
Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 600 hp for the Century Boats 2901 Center Console 2013 and 600 hp for the Century Boats 3200CC 2006. Real-world performance will come down more to which motor is actually bolted on, its load at the time, and whether it's a 4-stroke or 2-stroke setup. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 3 gal and 3 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Century Boats 3200CC 2006 is rated for 9 passengers, while the Century Boats 2901 Center Console 2013 caps at 8. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Century Boats 3200CC 2006 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Century Boats 3200CC 2006 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 9 passengers and at 32,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Century Boats 2901 Center Console 2013 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 8 that costs less to run day-to-day.
