SMART BUYERS GUIDE
2. Standard Features
Making the decision to buy a boat based on value is different than looking at price alone. When comparing model-to-model and component-to-component, smart buyers know every detail matters.
With MasterCraft, awesome comes standard. From clamping board racks on every tower to standard transom walkthroughs and ergonomically designed seats with premium upholstery, all MasterCraft boats are equipped with the highest-quality parts and materials to ensure your ride is dialed.
MasterCraft boats include more standard equipment—something you’ll pay extra for when it comes to the competition.
4. Peace of Mind
Fit-and-finish, warranty options, and resale value contribute to peace of mind when investing in a boat. MasterCraft’s reputation and attention to detail is the result of holding our boats to the highest standards and working with the most awarded vendors and partners in the industry.
Since 2014, MasterCraft has led the industry with MasterCare—a fully comprehensive, factory-backed 5-year warranty that covers every aspect of our boats. We proudly stand behind our craftsmanship, and so does our exclusive engine partner, Ilmor, with an unmatched 7-year, 1,000-hour factory-backed warranty on naturally aspirated engines—the most extensive coverage in the towboat industry. With MasterCraft and Ilmor, you’re not just buying a boat; you’re securing peace of mind for years to come.
1. Wave Versatility, Consistency, and Symmetry
When comparing surf boats, the focus is usually on the size of the wave. However, there are three very important features that take a good wave and make it great—versatility, consistency, and symmetry. These three factors are some of the most important traits that contribute to fun behind the boat—and not all manufacturers offer them.
Versatility means the wave shape, length, height, and push can all be individually adjusted to create an ideal wave for a variety of rider skills and styles. A consistent wave holds steady even in various conditions and depths. Due to MasterCraft’s relentless focus on wave symmetry, you’ll notice that the left and right waves have similar shape, push, and size without having to move people around.
MasterCraft’s SurfStar system was specifically designed to deliver the most versatile, consistent, and symmetric waves. Utilizing robust hydraulic actuators with position sensing technology, SurfStar delivers the ultimate in wave-shaping device precision, resulting in the most consistent and symmetric waves in the industry. With our new and intuitive interface, Rapid Surf, riders utilize a scale to adjust the wave. This provides a level of versatility and simplicity that’s unmatched by the competition. It also ensures that each rider can easily find the perfect wave for their skill level and preference. Pick your number and surf your wave, your way.
3. Innovations and Customizations
More choices mean a better fit for you and your family. Modern innovations allow for boats to be customized down to the details—from colorways and materials to technology and performance. When you're shopping for your next boat, look for thoughtful additions and options that will make your time on the water the best it can be.
MasterCraft offers more innovations and customizations than any other brand. Elevate your on-water experience with features like power board racks, stern thrusters, saltwater packages, power towers, premium audio packages, custom-colored towers with matching windshields, and more.
Winning seven innovation awards in the last twelve years, MasterCraft remains the undisputed industry innovator in the towboat category according to the National Marine Manufacturers Association.
