Description
4 3/4″ x 13 1/2″ ad for Two of their New Boats. The headline calls attention to “Two New Beauties by Century“ and has colorful drawings of their 17 1/2′ Sea Maid and their 17 1/2′ Resorter. The Sea Maid is identified as being a Runabout and the caption mentions items such as seven motors to choose from and a top speed of 44 m.p.h.. The Resorter is called a Utility Model and the caption mentions many of the things you can do with this boat plus the choice of seven different motors too but the top speed of this boat ranges from 31 to 44 m.p.h.. The text refers to these boats as being “designed to be the most beautiful boats on the water” and assures you that they design boats for Outboard as well as Inboard motors. They offer a piece of advice too, “the earlier you see your Century dealer, the earlier you’ll get a Century beauty.”
