Built for the whole day.

Surf performance when it's time to ride. Space, technology and comfort for everything that happens before and after.

Some boats are built around a single moment. The X24 is interesting because it has to handle all of them.

Early morning water. A serious surf session. Friends and family aboard. Boards everywhere. Music on. An afternoon anchored in a cove. And one more ride before the sun disappears.

For 2026, MasterCraft went back to the foundation and redesigned the X24 from the hull up. The result is a 24-foot performance boat that sits right at the intersection WakeLuxz knows well: performance, technology, comfort — and a really good day on the water.

All new for 2026

The X24, rethought.

This is the first complete redesign of the model in close to a decade — not a refresh of trim and graphics, but a new hull, a wider cockpit, reworked storage and a new visual and technology package on top of it.

What stands out isn't any single feature. It's how deliberately the boat has been rearranged around how people actually use it.

Surf & Wake

Let's talk about the reason we're here.

The X24 is still, fundamentally, a performance watersports boat. The redesigned hull works with MasterCraft SurfStar and 4,050 pounds of ballast to shape the wave — long and forgiving for someone learning, steeper and more reactive when the good rider takes their set.

What matters on the water is how quickly the boat gets it right, and how long it holds it. Sessions run until arms give out, not until the wave falls apart.

what happens behind it.

The other 90% of the day

Because you don't surf all day.

A great watersports boat also has to work when nobody is behind it. The 2026 X24 seats up to 17, with a wider cockpit, redesigned transom loungers and enough storage that the boat still feels like a place to sit down.

Swimming. Lunch. Conversation. Music. A cove, an afternoon, and no particular reason to start the engine.

Performance gets people interested. The rest of the boat determines whether they want to spend the entire day in it.

Smarter storage

Ten boards. Without the chaos.

The X24 can carry up to ten boards. Rear transom compartments take up to four in removable padded bags; the bimini handles up to six more.

Anyone who spends a day surfing knows how fast boards, ropes, jackets and gear take over a boat. Good design isn't always the feature you notice first. Sometimes it's simply not having to step over everything.

At the helm

More control. Less fuss.

The redesigned X Helm puts a 15-inch panoramic display in front of the driver and a 12-inch angled touchscreen beside it. Surf settings, speed, ballast, audio and camera views live in one place, with MasterCraft MyDrive holding a rider's preferences.

Options extend it further — a stern thruster, a four-camera system. The point is fewer things to think about while somebody is waiting behind the boat.

The playlist matters too.

Every 2026 X24 comes with MasterCraft SoundStage audio, powered by Meridian. We won't pretend to care about driver counts here.

What matters is that the soundtrack carries from the first run of the morning to the last hour anchored in the cove — and that nobody has to shout over it.

Power

When 24 feet needs to move.

Multiple Ilmor configurations are offered. At the top of the range, a supercharged 6.2L makes 630 hp and 665 lb-ft of torque — more than enough to load the boat down with ballast, people and gear and still feel unbothered.

Why it's on our radar

This one hits close to home.

WakeLuxz started with a love for boats, watersports and the lifestyle surrounding them. So the X24 represents something we understand particularly well.

The surf wave matters. So does the way the boat drives. But so do the people sitting in it, the boards stacked aboard, the music playing, the places it takes you and the memories created during everything that happens between rides.

That's what makes a boat more than equipment. It becomes part of the experience.
