(November 10, 2025) Nashville, TN— Centurion & Supreme Boats honored the legacy of our past while showcasing the innovations shaping the brand’s future at this year’s National Dealer Meeting, held at the JW Marriott in the heart of Music City, Nashville, TN. 167 dealers representing 53 dealerships across 8 different countries around the world gathered for two days of learning, collaboration, and celebration.
The event kicked off with an exciting welcome reception, where attendees were the first to witness the unveiling of the 2026 50th Anniversary Ri245 Limited Edition, a stunning tribute to 50 years of performance and innovation.
Throughout the conference, dealers participated in educational sessions led by industry experts including Liz Keener from MRAA and Lee Gatts from WSIA, alongside Centurion & Supreme’s own factory team and dealer network. Together, they explored best practices, discussed upcoming projects, and shared insights through interactive panels and workshops designed to strengthen dealer success. Dealers also had the opportunity to speak with 27 vendor partners, all who contribute to the success of Centurion & Supreme Boats.
A standout moment came from a powerful keynote delivered by Sam Dantzler, President of Garage Composites, whose motivational address left attendees inspired and energized to elevate their businesses.
In addition, dealers were acknowledged for their hard work and dedication to their business and the Centurion and Supreme brands with the Customer Service, Marketing and Sales awards. These awards aren’t given solely on the volume of sales, but on the hard work, determination and heart that dealers put in every single day. Check out this year’s winners below.
The meeting concluded in true Nashville style, with an evening of dinner and dancing at the iconic Tootsies Orchid Lounge, celebrating not only the past 50 years of excellence but also the bright future ahead for Centurion & Supreme Boats and our dedicated network of dealers.
