It starts with the ability to accommodate 18 guests. Couple that with 4,300 pounds of ballast and MasterCraft\u2019s signature SurfStar system, and you\u2019ve got pro-level wakes and waves that can be fine-tuned for any riding level or style. All of the X24\u2019s systems are easily controlled from MasterCraft\u2019s new 15-inch panoramic center display and companion 12-inch touchscreen. The SurfStar system utilizes the ballast and three transom-mounted tabs to shape up the waves, and the Rapid Surf presets make the X24 super easy to get started and adjust on the fly.<\/p>\n<section class=\"hydra-container\">\n<div class=\"hydra-canvas\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.boatingmag.com\/uploads\/2024\/11\/BTGBG25-WSP-MasterCraft-X24-1-1024x768.jpg?resize=800%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" class=\"hydra-image disable-lazyload\" alt=\"MasterCraft X24 running on the lake\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.boatingmag.com\/uploads\/2024\/11\/BTGBG25-WSP-MasterCraft-X24-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.boatingmag.com\/uploads\/2024\/11\/BTGBG25-WSP-MasterCraft-X24-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.boatingmag.com\/uploads\/2024\/11\/BTGBG25-WSP-MasterCraft-X24-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.boatingmag.com\/uploads\/2024\/11\/BTGBG25-WSP-MasterCraft-X24-1-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.boatingmag.com\/uploads\/2024\/11\/BTGBG25-WSP-MasterCraft-X24-1.jpg 2000w\">                <\/div><figcaption class=\"caption margin_top_xs full border_1 hydra-figcaption\">\n                <span class=\"hydra-image-caption\">Opt for Ilmor\u2019s  supercharged 6.2L engine to own the most powerful tow boat in the world.<\/span><br \/>\n                <span class=\"article_image_credit italic margin_right_xs\">Tom King<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/section>\n<p>Also new at the helm is the MasterCraft MyDrive rotary encoder, a dial that lets the captain navigate menus and select surf settings without tapping a touchscreen.

We suggest opting for the flip-out footrest to take the lounge factor to the next level. Seating is customizable throughout, thanks to the convertible rear bench that is one of the easiest to deploy we\u2019ve seen. The scallop-shaped seats in the wraparound add a luxurious feel and comfort, with MasterCraft\u2019s signature stitching running throughout. Another suggestion: Upgrade the phone cradles integrated into the port and starboard cubbies to wireless\u00a0chargers.\u00a0<\/p>\n<section class=\"hydra-container\">\n<div class=\"hydra-canvas\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.boatingmag.com\/uploads\/2024\/11\/BTGBG25-WSP-MasterCraft-X24-3-1024x768.jpg?resize=800%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" class=\"hydra-image\" alt=\"MasterCraft X24 cockpit seating\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.boatingmag.com\/uploads\/2024\/11\/BTGBG25-WSP-MasterCraft-X24-3-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.boatingmag.com\/uploads\/2024\/11\/BTGBG25-WSP-MasterCraft-X24-3-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.boatingmag.com\/uploads\/2024\/11\/BTGBG25-WSP-MasterCraft-X24-3-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.boatingmag.com\/uploads\/2024\/11\/BTGBG25-WSP-MasterCraft-X24-3-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.boatingmag.com\/uploads\/2024\/11\/BTGBG25-WSP-MasterCraft-X24-3.jpg 2000w\">                <\/div><figcaption class=\"caption margin_top_xs full border_1 hydra-figcaption\">\n                <span class=\"hydra-image-caption\">Seating is customizable throughout, thanks to the convertible rear bench.<\/span><br \/>\n                <span class=\"article_image_credit italic margin_right_xs\">Tom King<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/section>\n<p>The X24 comes with MasterCraft\u2019s Z6 tower, but we prefer the optional Z8, which the test boat was equipped with. While not fully electric like the Z10, the Z8 is easily lowered and raised by one person thanks to patented Hydro-Lock technology. The large Bimini is also easily deployed and features integrated board storage.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re in the market for a boat that\u2019s high on performance but doesn\u2019t skimp in luxury or comfort, consider the 2025 MasterCraft X24.<\/p>\n<section class=\"hydra-container\">\n<div class=\"hydra-canvas\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"
