Supreme’s S220 produces solid wakesurfing waves while offering small-boat benefits, like easier towing and storage. Just beginning your ­watersports journey? Start here.

Thanks to clean lines and higher freeboard, the S220 looks great and offers the comfort of deeper seating. Enjoy even more comfort thanks to the EZ-V hull with its 30 degrees of deadrise at the stem and 20 degrees at the transom. The deeper V smooths choppier waters and helps the boat displace more water to ­offer up great wakes and waves.

With an available 4,400 pounds of ballast on top of a 5,400-pound dry weight, the S220 serves up sizable waves that plenty of riders can enjoy. To help shape the wakes and waves, Supreme’s Stinger Wake Plate acts as an extension of the hull surface. It can be adjusted to mellow out the wave and make it longer, or make it taller and steeper.

At the helm, find Supreme’s 7-inch touchscreen with easy-to-use menus for adjusting onboard systems. To the captain’s right, analog toggle switches make it convenient to quickly control necessities like the blower, bilge and nav lighting. Upholstery is wrapped in Spradling vinyl that boasts a 17 mm topcoat. It’s not only comfortable but also extremely durable. Soft-touch flooring by GatorStep throughout and along the gunwales ensures a comfortable, slip-free experience no matter where you walk on board.

New for 2024 in all Supreme models is a battery-isolation system built right into the glove compartment. This makes it simple and convenient to switch between the house battery and the ­engine battery, or let them work together ­simultaneously. If you’re going to tie up with friends in the cove and bump some tunes, simply switch to the house battery and leave the engine battery alone. When you’re ready to leave, you know the engine battery won’t have any issues.

All in all, the S220 is a solid performer on a variety of fronts, from wakeboarding and wakesurfing to recreation skiing and tubing. It’s easy to use, a pleasure to drive, and a boat any buyer interested in riding endless waves with family and friends should check out.

The latest addition to the Supreme S lineup hardly resembles its successful predecessors. On top of delivering a design intent of more bang for less bucks, the S220 features higher freeboard, a hybrid bow shape, and a clean sheerline and hullsides that give it a solid, defined look on the water.

Equipped with Supreme’s EZ-V hull, which features 30 degrees of deadrise at the stem that tapers aft to 20 degrees at the transom, the S220 offers a smooth, comfortable ride in choppy waters, plus it creates clean, symmetrical wakes and waves. Add in the S220’s 4,400 pounds of internal ballast plus room for 14 on board, and the S220 produces wakes and waves that cater to beginners to advanced riders learning to perform a variety of tricks.

To help shape the wakes and waves, and give them a clean riding surface, Supreme employs the QuickSurf Pro system and the Stinger Wake Plate. The port and starboard QuickSurf Pro system creates lift opposite the surf side, displacing the surfside corner, creating a clean surfable wave every time. The Stinger Wake Plate trims up to create steepness and adjusts down to create a longer wave. Myriad setting adjustments allow the S220 to create a mellow, beginner-friendly wave, or a steeper one suited to advanced riders.

The S220’s Spradling vinyl upholstery features a 17-mil topcoat that offers comfort plus the ability to take a beating. Storage is abundant underneath all the seats, along with wakesurf board holders in the extended Bimini top and board racks on the towers.

Supreme’s OmniTouch 7-inch touchscreen is front and center at the helm, with easy-to-access menus for adjusting all systems. Analog toggle switches make it simple to control necessities, like the blower, bilge pump and lighting. The PCM 409 engine provided plenty of torque for getting on plane and burned an efficient 5.2 gph at wakesurf speeds.

Overall, the S220 is a solid, all-around watersports performer suited for those looking to buy a boat with room for 14. It has a sizable 70-gallon fuel capacity to ensure the fun lasts all day, and a length that’s easier to tow, store and maneuver than larger offerings.

High Points

• Optional Roswell F-series tower can be custom color-matched to your boat.
• Wide bow offers plenty of space for two adults and extra storage.
• Transom storage compartments are great for gear and can be used as coolers.

How We Tested

• Engine: GM Marine L96 6.0L 409 hp
• Drive/Prop: Acme 16″ x 13″
• Gear Ratio: 1.72:1 Fuel Load: 25 gal. Crew Weight: 540 lb.

The post 2023 Supreme S220 appeared first on Wakeboarding Mag.

Some boatbuilders talk value. Supreme delivers it. Seats are upholstered in Spradling’s Comfort Strong marine vinyl and constructed to stand up to heavy-duty use. The S220 can carry up to 4,400 pounds of ballast and seats 14. Standard trailer, standard Zero Off speed control, and the new EZ-V hull design ensure that value is measured in owner satisfaction on and off the lake.

Specs

Supreme Boats’ S220 is 22 feet in length overall, offers a roomy yet trailerable 8-foot-6-inch beam, and weighs in at 5,400 pounds dry. This boat seats 14, can carry up to 4,400 pounds of ballast, and carries 70 gallons of fuel. Power choices from GM Marine by PCM range to 465 foot-pounds of torque.

Electronics

Supreme’s 7-inch Omni touchscreen provides easy and intuitive control of features such as QuickSurf, the Stinger wake plate, the standard Zero Off speed control, ballast and more.

The same feature that provides Supreme with a smoother ride in chop than other boats is the same feature that helps it deliver superior wakes and waves. The S220’s modified deep-V hull carries 20 degrees of deadrise angle at the transom. That is twice the deadrise of other boats, and it works in concert with the EZ-V running surface to build a truly superior riding experience. Now that’s smooth.

Because sound and vibration will physically wear you down and take away from your enjoyment time on the water, Supreme set out to chase down every rattle, hum, and decibel. From its hull design to its construction process to its implementation of technology such as the patented Silent Stinger wake-plate exhaust system, the Supreme S220 runs quieter than other boats by a difference that can be measured—and heard.

Supreme’s ZS252 grabs attention with its striking, aggressive lines. The sheerline, unlike any other, sets this boat apart (and provides inspiration for the “ZS” prefix). The lines are complemented by the cutout windshield and the optional Roswell F-series tower, which also houses the large Bimini shade, speakers and board racks. Notably, the Roswell Bomb racks hold any size of wakesurf board and can be equipped with flag mounts. Fly your colors!

There’s room aplenty aboard the ZS252 for a crew of 17 and all their gear. Seating features hinged cushions to access stowage and is also customizable. The sliding rear bench slots into three positions, and removable backrests allow crew to face forward or aft. An optional table creates a lounge ready for entertaining. The GatorStep flooring delivers comfortable footing and easy maintenance, and offers buyers a means of customization.

At the helm, Supreme installed a new 7-inch OmniTouch screen that controls all the boat’s functions, including the wakesurf setup, ballast, speed control, navigation and more. The user-friendly operation means a crew can be wakesurfing within minutes of getting on the water. The ballast system consists of six separate zones that combine for up to 5,100 pounds of added weight. This quantity is necessary for such a large boat, and it helps the ZS252 push out sizable wakes and waves. With fine-tuned adjustments to the center wake plate, the waves can be customized to suit a variety of skill levels. A toggle lever mounted behind the steering wheel allows the captain to easily adjust the wake plate. Riders can save their preferences for ballast and plate settings as a user profile.

Behind the boat is where the ZS252 shines. The wakes and waves are large enough for advanced-level riders but easy to customize for riders trying things for the first time. The ZS252’s wave features a large pocket with plenty of push—a necessity for learning crazy tricks or dropping the rope for the first time. Designed for families or large crews focused on wakesurfing and wakeboarding fun, Supreme’s ZS252 ultimately delivers with easy operation that makes the on-water experience more enjoyable.

High Points

• QuickLaunch allows easy planing under a full load, with almost zero bow rise.
• Wireless phone charger proves a convenient option for the captain.
• EZ-V hull delivers a soft ride while pushing out symmetrical wakes and waves.

How We Tested

• Engine: GM Marine HO 6.0L 450 hp
• Drive/Prop: V-drive/Acme 16″ x 13″
• Gear Ratio: 1.72:1 Fuel Load: 60 gal. Crew Weight: 600 lb.

Designed to bring more value to the customer and deliver more bang for the buck, Supreme’s all-new S240 delivers 24 feet of comfort and endless wave capabilities at a lower price point.

With a new running surface, higher freeboard and unique hybrid bow, the S240 is nothing like previous iterations of the model line. The S240 displays a more traditional sheerline, which, when combined with the shape and slope of the bow, makes for a great-looking boat on and off the water. The EZ-V hull, similar to sister company Centurion’s Opti-V hull, features a deep 20-degree deadrise at the transom. This gives the S240 a smooth ride in choppy water, while also displacing more water and kicking up excellent surf waves.

To help create the wakes and waves, the S240 is equipped with 4,800 pounds of ballast as well as the QuickSurf system. Choose which side you want to surf, and a transom-mounted surf plate deploys to create lift on one side of the boat and displacement on the surf side. From there, a center-mounted transom plate can be fine-tuned to change the wave’s shape and attitude. With room for 14, it doesn’t take much to get the S240 to kick up wakes and waves the whole crew can enjoy.

A new stainless-steel tower complements the S240’s polished lines well. When equipped with the optional SewLong Bimini, shade is easy to come by for almost the entire main cabin, and the Wet Sounds audio package ensures everybody can enjoy the tunes. Optional Roswell Bombshell 2.0 racks are versatile and some of the easiest to use.

On board, the S240 offers a secure ride, thanks in part to its higher freeboard. Seating is customizable with the sliding rear bench so crew can face aft to catch the action. The Spradling vinyl features a 17 mm top coat, which makes the interior durable and comfortable. At the helm, the captain has easy access to all the boat’s systems from the 7-inch touchscreen.

Overall, the S240 is a great option for families looking to get into water-sports action. It offers versatile performance and ease of use in a simple, clean, convenient form factor.

High Points

• Outside the Box (OTB) vinyl looks great and does not get too hot. 
• Transom storage compartments are great for wet items or can be used as coolers.
• QuickSurf can be customized to create an ideal wave for a variety of riders.

How We Tested

• Engine: GM Marine L96 6.0L 400 hp
• Drive/Prop: Acme 16″ x 13″
• Gear Ratio: 1.72:1 Fuel Load: 59 gal. Crew Weight: 530 lb.

The post 2022 Supreme S240 appeared first on Wakeboarding Mag.

How many times will feet step on your seats during the course of your boat ownership? Supreme might not be keeping count, but the builder is keeping it in mind. The upholstery aboard the S220 is Comfort Strong Marine Vinyl by Spradling. It is super-tough, sewn together with Gore Tenara thread by Gore-Tex—not what we find aboard most so-called value boats, but Supreme is out to redefine that term with its S220.

This 22-footer sports the new EZ-V hull design, seats 14, and carries up to 4,400 pounds of ballast in six locations evenly distributed around the boat. Yeah, big waves and monster wakes without lots of big, clumsy bow rise. Choose between the new stainless-steel Supreme Shine tower (SST) or the upgraded F-Series tower by Roswell with gelcoat color-matched tower shields. The standard PCM power delivers 409 foot-pounds of torque.

Knowing how elevated noise levels wear you down, cause everyone to yell, and plain sound like low quality, Supreme makes a science of quieting boats, as it does with the S220. The efficient, level-running hull design helps by requiring less rpm for any given task. It’s unibody construction dampens water noise and vibration. Even its wave- and wake-shaping technology has quiet built in—check the patented Silent Stinger wake-plate exhaust system.

The S220 sports lines and styling that look fresh but haven’t forsaken the form-following-function mantra that gives so many classic boats their good looks. This boat’s cockpit is deep, providing comfy seating backrests and a confident feel. Combined with a sheerline that descends aft from the bow, this makes for a boat that does a better job at keeping the water on the outside.

At the helm, the center-mounted Omni touchscreen controls wake- and wave-shaping functions, the standard Zero Off speed control, audio and more. This screen is daylight-viewable, features color iconography, and connects to phones via Bluetooth. Activate navigation lights, docking lights, the bilge and other critical  elements with switches.

• Great stowage capacity. Check out the big transom lockers with slam latches.
• Standard Boatmate trailer with rear steps for easy boarding.

Brand new from the bottom up for 2019, the ZS232 has flagship written all over it. While it’s not Supreme’s longest boat, it’s by far the builder’s biggest when it comes to on-board ballast and overall weight. The ZS is also the boldest and most unique-looking boat Supreme has ever built. On the water it’s a sight to behold — and it screams wake-making machine.

With its unique Tapered V hull, which pinches in toward the transom to allow it to sink into the water more easily, the ZS232 puts out large, symmetrical wakes and waves that can hit the pro level in terms of size and rideability. With eight separate ballast zones, all controlled from the touchscreen on the dash, it’s easy to customize the riding experience. A lever behind the steering wheel controls the Stinger Wake plate, which further customizes the characteristics of the wakes and waves. If you have a beginner who wants a more mellow ride, set the plate around 80 percent. If you’re more advanced and looking for size, set it around 30 percent. The QuickSurf tabs on the ZS232 are designed to work specifically with the Tapered V hull, and that shows when you’re on the water. The system is easily engaged and switched via the touchscreen, allowing surfers to transfer from one side of the boat to the other without worry or waiting.

Inside the ZS232 there’s room for 14 along with all the requisite gear. A removable backrest easily slides into place midway along the portside seating to create a comfortable, rear-facing seat. The Spradling marine vinyl is both comfortable and durable, while adding a higher-end look to the Supreme line.

The rear sun deck on the ZS232 is also the biggest Supreme has ever created, and underneath it there’s a great storage spot for wakesurf boards. Plus, under the padded seating area you’ll find two convenient draining storage areas. Accessible from the swim step, they make for great spots to store vests, ropes and handles when getting out of the water.

Overall the ZS232 marks a bold new entry in the wake market for Supreme, and it hits a lot of nails squarely on the head.

High Points

• A second subwoofer in the bow keeps tunes bumping up front.
• 4,600 pounds of ballast ensure you’re creating giant wakes and waves.
• The ZS gets its name from the aggressive lines that form a Z on the port side and an S to starboard.

Price: $124,971 (as tested)

Build Your Boat

The all-new ZS series from Supreme marks a huge step forward across the board for price-conscious buyers of watersports boats. The ZS212 is no exception. For starters, its assertive lines and unique alignment of top deck and hull are bold — in a very good way. This is also where the ZS name comes from: On the port side the lines look like a Z, on the starboard side an S.

The ZS212 rides on what Supreme has dubbed its Tapered-V hull. As the name indicates, the hull tapers toward the transom, allowing it to sit deeper in the water, thereby displacing more water to create bigger and better wakes and waves. And even at just 21 feet, this boat can displace plenty of water thanks to 4,400 pounds of available ballast alongside a whopping 81-gallon fuel tank. More than displacement went into the design of the ZS hull though. Offset chines on either side help to mitigate the effect of the prop’s rotation, which makes for even more symmetrical wakes and waves.

Borrowing the QuickSurf Pro system from big sister company Centurion, the ZS212 makes waves that shape up quickly and easily. A lever behind the steering wheel allows the driver to adjust the Stinger Wake Plate to either lengthen or steepen the wakes and waves depending on each rider’s preferences. The dash houses a unique gauge layout unlike any we’ve seen in a watersports boat. With a mix of analog and digital gauges, the boat’s functions are easily controlled via the toggle switches and the touchscreen. The tach and speedo are stacked to the right of the steering wheel, which is unusual but highly functional.

With room for 13, the ZS212 is a great all-around wakeboat in a smaller package. It still delivers wakes and waves to accommodate all skill levels and styles. Board racks and under-seat storage provide plenty of room for gear, and a unique wakesurf board storage spot has been added under the rear sun pad above the engine. Simply put, this little boat packs a big punch. If you’re looking to get more serious about your watersports experience but don’t need the size or all the bells and whistles of some other models out there, the ZS212 is a great place to start.

High Points

• QuickSurf Pro system combined with the Tapered-V hull creates awesome wakes and waves for a 21-foot boat.
• Seats at the transom by the swim step have draining lockers underneath.
• 4,400 pounds of ballast is beyond impressive for a boat this size.

Price: $109,062 (as tested)

Drive/Prop: V-drive/16″ x 15″ 4-blade

The post 2019 Supreme ZS212 appeared first on Wakeboarding Mag.

Supreme just announced two all-new boats and they look awesome! Dubbed the ZS series for the unique Z-shaped sheer line, these boats were built from the bottom up to deliver a killer wakesurf and wakeboard experience. Much of that experience is thanks to Supreme’s new Tapered-V Hull, which is designed to plow and shape the water into epic waves. At first glance, the ZS232 and ZS212 look unlike anything Supreme has ever made before. Bold lines and an aggressive stance really add to the personality of the boats. The ZS232 can hold up to 4,600 pounds of internal ballast, while the 212 isn’t far behind at 4,400, and that ballast can be placed in eight specific locations throughout the boat. Take a look at the specs below, and be sure to check out the new boats over at the Supreme website!

WHAT YOU GET

The S238’s wave grows substantially as you add ballast and engage the QuickSurf system. With just a driver and spotter on board during the test, the wave was big and the pocket was easy to find and stay in; we never had to hunt for it. At nearly 24 feet long, the S238 displaces a solid amount of water, which gives the wave a nice length that allows you go back and forth with ease. The S238’s wave is more mellow and very rider friendly.

WHO IT’S FOR

The S238’s more-mellow shape, combined with its powerful push, is great for beginners, but it’s still big and powerful enough for advanced riders to push themselves while learning new tricks. While it can suit a variety of styles, cruisy, surf-style riders will especially love this wave. Changing the center tab settings will also allow you to customize the wave characteristics to suit different preferences.

OUR FAVORITE THINGS

Deep-V hull. Not only does the Deep-V hull put out a solid wave, but it also provides for an extremely comfortable ride for all on board.
Size and space. The S238 is Supreme’s biggest boat, which means there is a lot of space to spread out.
QuickSurf. Displacing water is one thing, but QuickSurf makes it a solid, clean wave with the push of a button.
