What owners & reviewers say

Based on 12 reviews from across the web

The X24 is MasterCraft's flagship mid-size towboat, built around a purpose-designed hull paired with up to 4,300 pounds of ballast and the SurfStar system. What stands out most from our owners and reviewers is how consistently the surf wave performs, whether the boat is lightly loaded or packed with all 18 passengers. The Rapid Surf preset system makes dialing in a great wave genuinely straightforward, and that ease of use is something we hear about from first-time X24 owners and seasoned wake professionals alike.

Beyond wave performance, reviewers highlight the interior quality, calling out the upholstery, stitching, and overall fit and finish as a step above what you typically find in this category. The dedicated board storage (replacing older piggyback ballast tanks) is a practical improvement our owners appreciate right away. At the helm, the boat handles with more agility than its size suggests, including at low speeds around the dock.

A few forum veterans note that the surf wave, while genuinely impressive, is longer and more powerful rather than dramatically steeper than previous generations. If you specifically want a very steep, hollow wave face, that is worth discussing before you buy. Overall, though, the X24 earns consistent praise across casual family riders, surf instructors, and expert reviewers.

What owners like

  • Up to 4,300 lbs of ballast produces a large, powerful surf wave
  • Rapid Surf presets make setup simple for all skill levels
  • Handles 18 passengers without feeling cramped
  • Interior fit, finish, and upholstery quality stand out among competitors
  • Surprisingly nimble for a boat of this size, including at low dock speeds
  • Dedicated board storage replaces piggyback ballast tanks
  • Wave remains clean and consistent across a range of conditions
  • Trusted by commercial surf schools running multiple X24s in heavy daily use

Tradeoffs to consider

  • With a full passenger load, faster surf speeds are needed to firm up the wave
  • Compared with some alternatives, the wave is longer and more powerful but less steep, which varies from owner to owner in terms of preference

Frequently asked questions

Is the X24 a good boat for beginner surfers as well as experienced riders?

Yes, the Rapid Surf preset system lets beginners get on a great wave right away with minimal adjustment, while experienced riders can fine-tune ballast and the SurfStar tabs to match their preferred style. We hear from owners at both ends of the skill spectrum that the wave works well for them.

How does the surf wave compare to the previous X23 generation?

Owners who surfed both tell us the X24 wave is noticeably longer and more powerful than the X23, though not dramatically taller. The redesigned hull and fully integrated SurfStar system are the main reasons for that improvement.

How does the X24 wave compare to the XStar?

Owners who have spent time on both say the waves are very similar in quality, with subtle differences that often come down to setup rather than capability. The X24 wave tends to be long and powerful, while the XStar may carry slight differences in shape depending on configuration.

How many people can the X24 carry, and does a full load affect performance?

The X24 is rated for 18 passengers, and our owners find the surf wave actually improves with more people on board since the added weight helps shape the wave. At heavier loads you will want to run at slightly higher surf speeds to keep the wave feeling firm.

Is the X24 easy to handle around the dock for a less experienced driver?

Reviewers and owners consistently describe it as more agile than its size would suggest, and one reviewer noted it handles a full-speed U-turn without feeling unstable. Several owners mention managing it confidently without optional docking assist features.

What storage improvements does the X24 offer over older models?

The current X24 eliminates the piggyback ballast tanks that older versions used, freeing up a dedicated board storage area. This is a change our owners who came from previous generations notice and appreciate right away.
