Champion motocross racer Chad Reed has picked up many trophies in his professional race career.  Thursday, February 2, the recreational wake sports enthusiast receives a trophy of a different type:  a personalized, customized, new towboat.

Reed sees his new boat and receives its keys at 5 p.m. Thursday, Space ER 16-22, Ski Centurion space, Los Angeles Convention Center at 1201 S. Figueroa, Los Angeles during the Los Angeles Boat Show.

Reed, 23, is the 2004 Supercross Champion and one of the world’s top motocross racers. This year, he has finished in the top three during the 2006 Supercross series in California, Arizona and Canada. Reed is a recreational boater and wake sports enthusiast who will use the new boat near his Florida residence. 
Following the presentation and boat tour, Reed will greet fans and speak with news media. 

His new Centurion Enzo SV230, built by Centurion Boats, is customized to match his motocross race bike and includes many custom performance and comfort features as well as personalized graphics. The 23-foot Enzo is equipped with a Mercury Scorpion engine and seats 12 passengers.  The Enzo produces excellent wakes, as seen at the World Wake Surfing Championships and World Cup Wake Boarding events during BoardStock 10 last year.
