Impeccable ride and handling, wake shapes, and turn on a dime cornering are courtesy of the proven Supra Competition Hull, and the All-New Supra SA features a thoughtfully designed Surf Storage solution built into the transom for easy access to boards and all of your gear. To top off the SA there is a completely re-designed wake enhancing Swell Surf 2.0 system and new Supra Smart Plate, giving you get the best professional grade waves ever ridden. Period.

Inside the SA’s cockpit there are loads of new features that make this the most refined interior ever offered in a Supra. Intuitive helm design, multiple seating configurations, striking interior accents and an All-New Premium JL Audio system headline a host of interior changes across the line for 2016. Wrap that into a limited lifetime hull warranty and 5-year Factory Indmar Engine warranty, and you can enjoy complete performance and comfort on the water for years.

“The Supra SA is poised to transform the class of performance wake boats as a whole,” Burke adds, “we’re excited to reveal to the world our next milestone of Supra.”

GO BIGGER THAN EVER BEFORE WITH THE NEW WAKESETTER

25 LSV Looking for the ultimate wake and a huge, barreling surf wave? Look no further. The 25 LSV is brand-new for 2016—and built to deliver big-time.

Loudon, TN | July 22, 2015 — With today’s official release of the all-new Wakesetter 25 LSV, Malibu delivers the boat built to make the wakes and waves of your dreams. Every Malibu athlete who’s shredded behind the massive 25-footer says this brand-new beast kicks up what are unmistakably the biggest, cleanest wakes and waves they’ve ever experienced. Never has there been so much anticipation and athlete excitement around a new boat.

And this is one big bad boat. But thanks to our engineering and design teams, the 25 LSV is incredibly agile on the water, despite its monstrous size. This is the first time that a towboat this big has featured the performance to match its proportions. The 25 LSV handles beautifully, plus it can easily haul up to 19 people, with plenty of room for everything else. And among all the other great 2016 upgrades, you can also spec the 25 LSV with our Integrated Surf Platform (including our new Surf Band wrist remote), action-camera mounts on the transom, a power-adjustable helm seat, a reversible WakeView rear bench, and a rear-view camera that allows the driver to easily watch what’s going on behind the boat.

Malibu CEO Jack Springer is thrilled to launch this incredible new performance towboat. “The Wakesetter 25 LSV has been nothing but fun since the very first day we put it on the water,” says Springer. “It just blows people’s minds. This is unquestionably the most versatile, highest-performing 25-footer on the market, and it has everyone tremendously excited. Our athletes have been raving about it. Every new or redesigned boat we make is built from the hull up to be incomparably versatile on the water and to deliver multisport capability at the highest level. Our customers want to be able to maximize their performance in several watersports, so we build our boats to allow you to reach your full potential in wakeboarding and wakesurfing. None of our Wakesetters is one-dimensional or designed for a single purpose.”

Malibu Pro Team rider Jeff Langley says, “There’s nothing that compares. With its huge, barreling surf wave, truly massive wake, and all of the awesome 2016 upgrades, the new 25 LSV is the boat of my dreams. Ever since Malibu dropped the ‘El Dorado’ and ‘Quintuplets’ sneak-peek videos, my phone has been blowing up with calls from friends and fans begging to know more about the 25 LSV and just how epic the ride is. Let me tell you: you’ve got to experience it to believe it. Amazing.”

VONORE, Tenn. (Feb. 17, 2015) – MasterCraft Boats was honored with yet another Innovation Award from the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA) for its revolutionary X23, the first boat designed from the fins up specifically for surfing. The NMMA works in partnership with Boat Writers International to recognize manufacturers and suppliers who introduce new, innovative products to the marine industry with a direct benefit to the consumer.

Awarded in advance of the Miami International Boat Show, this year’s field consisted of a record number of products for consideration with only seventeen finalists being selected for their technological advancements and laudable contributions to the boating community. MasterCraft has been a perennial winner of the award walking away with two NMMA Innovation Awards in 2014 for a total of five awards over the last six years.

“MasterCraft implemented a company-wide charter this past year to build the best surf boat on the market,” said Terry McNew, President and CEO of MasterCraft Boat Company. “Today’s recognition by the NMMA and Boat Writers International serves as validation from the most trusted voices in the industry that we have achieved this goal.”

The judges recognized the X23’s groundbreaking hull design and compartmentalized ballasts capable of delivering the longest, most customizable waves on the market. The boat introduces an entirely new zone for surfing, nearly twenty feet of curling barrel, with options for both goofy and regular riders.

The X23 is equipped with MasterCraft’s Gen 2 Surf System, itself a winner of an NMMA Innovation Award in 2014, providing perfectly shaped, chest high waves at the touch of a button. The X23 is part of MasterCraft’s legendary lineup of towboats, all frontrunners in their own right. The ProStar, recipient of the 2014 NMMA Innovation Award, continues to set the industry standard in competitive waterskiing while the awardwinning XStar continues to dominate the competitive wakeboarding scene. Together, these three flagship boats deliver MasterCraft’s unmatched performance across all watersports categories – from waterskiing, to wakeboarding or wakesurfing.

As part of the Nautique Cares initiative the one-of-a-kind G21 was donated to benefit “As Our Own,” a non-profit organization working in India that rescues vulnerable girls from enslavement and exploitation. Over the past year As Our Own has been accepting donations, which also served as an opportunity to win the boat. The Falconer family made a donation and was selected as the winner of the G21.

In late 2013 after visiting India on a service trip, Nautique employees were determined to help As Our Own with their vision, which lead to the donation of the G21 for the grand prize in the As Our Own sweepstakes. The sweepstakes raised significant money and awareness for the mission of As Our Own.

“The Nautique team couldn’t be more excited for the Falconer family to win this one-of-a-kind Super Air Nautique G21,” stated Nautique’s President/CEO Bill Yeargin. “Giving back is part of our culture at Nautique and teaming up with As Our Own to raise awareness and funds through this sweepstakes was a great opportunity to help a wonderful organization that is doing great work. Truly Nautique Cares,” added Yeargin.
