American Water Sports is proud to present this brand-new 2027 MasterCraft NXT24 — the accessible entry into factory-new MasterCraft V-drive wakesurf ownership, delivering the same core MasterCraft-Ilmor MV8 V8 inboard powertrain, purpose-built V-drive wakesurf hull architecture, integrated ballast systems, and factory-authorized MasterCraft dealer support that defines every MasterCraft build — at the specifically accessible NXT-tier price point that makes new-MasterCraft V-drive ownership genuinely attainable for buyers who don't want to stretch into X-Series or flagship XSTAR pricing. Available at our Kimberling City location on Table Rock Lake (Stock #MC-NXT24.27-CBAW2), this new NXT24 is a factory-fresh 2027 model year build delivered with full factory warranty coverage from both MasterCraft on the hull and Ilmor on the MV8 V8 inboard powertrain — the specific factory-new ownership advantage that distinguishes brand-new MasterCraft ownership from pre-owned or brokered alternatives. The MasterCraft brand pedigree needs little introduction — MasterCraft Boat Company has been building premium American inboard tow boats in Vonore, Tennessee since 1968, and the NXT-Series specifically was purpose-launched to bring MasterCraft's premium V-drive wakesurf ownership experience to a more-accessible price point than the X-Series or flagship XSTAR builds require. For the buyer who wants factory-new MasterCraft V-drive wakesurf ownership at the accessible NXT-tier entry price — with full factory warranty coverage, factory-current-vintage feature content, and the specific access to MasterCraft's factory-authorized dealer service infrastructure that American Water Sports provides — this new NXT24 at our Kimberling City location is one of the most compelling new-wakesurf-boat opportunities at our current inventory.
The NXT-Series is MasterCraft's entry-tier V-drive wakesurf lineup — specifically positioned as the accessible entry into MasterCraft V-drive ownership, below the mid-tier XT-Series (like the XT25 in our current inventory), below the premium X-Series (like our four X26 builds), and below the flagship XSTAR tier (like the 2022 and 2024 XSTAR S builds in our current inventory). The NXT's specific role in the MasterCraft lineup is important — it delivers the same core MasterCraft V-drive wakesurf experience that defines the brand (Ilmor MV8 V8 inboard, purpose-built V-drive hull architecture, integrated ballast, wakesurf-shaping capability, MasterCraft build quality) at a meaningfully accessible price point vs the X-Series and XSTAR alternatives above it. That NXT-tier positioning matters for buyers who want legitimate MasterCraft V-drive ownership without stepping fully into the premium X-Series or flagship XSTAR price bracket. The 24 designation on this build indicates the 24-foot NXT24 platform — MasterCraft's sweet-spot NXT length, right-sized for accessible family-wakesurf duty on Table Rock Lake, meaningfully smaller and more manageable than the 26-foot X26 or XSTAR platforms while still delivering credible V-drive wakesurf capability. For the buyer cross-shopping factory-new entry-tier V-drive wakesurf boats — comparing directly against Malibu Axis A22/A24, Supreme S211, or Nautique GS20/GS22 builds — this 2027 MasterCraft NXT24 delivers legitimate MasterCraft V-drive ownership at the accessible NXT-tier price point.
For buyers who understand the MasterCraft V-drive wakesurf lineup, the brand's tier hierarchy is worth understanding: NXT (entry tier — accessible V-drive wakesurf ownership), XT (mid tier — meaningful step up in feature content), X-Series (premium tier — X22, X24, X26 flagship-adjacent wakesurf builds), and XSTAR (flagship tier — absolute top of the MasterCraft lineup). Our current inventory represents essentially every tier: this new 2027 NXT24 (entry tier, new), 2022 XT25 (mid tier, used), four X26 builds across 2016/2018/2019/2022 vintages (premium tier, various vintages), and the 2022 and 2024 XSTAR S builds (flagship tier, nearly-new). For the buyer who wants the most-accessible factory-new MasterCraft V-drive entry point, this NXT24 is the answer. For the buyer who wants meaningfully more premium content, the X-Series or XSTAR alternatives are worth cross-shopping. Our team can walk through the specific tier tradeoffs — accessible-entry NXT vs premium X-Series vs flagship XSTAR — in person, and match the right tier to the right buyer's budget and use case.
This new 2027 MasterCraft NXT24 is powered by an Ilmor MV8 V8 inboard powertrain — MasterCraft's continuous-partner V8 inboard powerplant that delivers the segment-standard reliability, quiet premium-inboard character, and integrated electronic-throttle helm response that has defined MasterCraft's V-drive experience across essentially every tier of the lineup. Typical 2027 NXT24 configurations use the Ilmor MV8 6.0L or MV8 6.2L V8 inboard, delivering the low-end torque, hole-shot acceleration, and sustained wakesurf-speed cruise capability that V-drive wakesurf duty specifically requires. On the 24-foot NXT24 platform, the Ilmor MV8 delivers exactly the kind of power characteristic the NXT tier needs — enough capability to produce credible wakesurf and wakeboard waves without over-powering the accessible-tier platform. American Water Sports is fully equipped to support Ilmor MV8 service through our shop, and the combination of factory-new delivery and Ilmor's engineered service life means this NXT24's powertrain has essentially its entire service life ahead of it. For the specific Ilmor MV8 variant on this build (typical 2027 NXT24 options: MV8 6.0L or MV8 6.2L), please contact our Kimberling City team for the complete factory build sheet.
The NXT24's 24-foot platform delivers a specifically-accessible V-drive wakesurf footprint — meaningfully smaller and more manageable than the 26-foot X26 or XSTAR flagship platforms, but still credibly-sized for family-wakesurf duty. That 24-foot manageable-platform size translates directly into meaningful ownership advantages: easier to tow with mid-size trucks and SUVs, easier to store in a garage or covered boat house, easier to launch and retrieve at standard ramps, and the kind of accessible-size footprint that first-time-MasterCraft-buyers or downsizing owners specifically appreciate. The current-generation NXT24 layout is purpose-built for the family-wakesurf mission — with the integrated ballast systems, factory wakesurf-shaping capability, purpose-built cockpit-and-swim-platform layout, quality flooring, premium upholstery throughout (typical NXT interior appointments are MasterCraft's current mid-tier upholstery treatments rather than the flagship Coolfeel found on XSTAR builds), integrated cup holders and storage, factory tower package with speaker options, modern touchscreen helm electronics, and the kind of MasterCraft fit-and-finish that defines the brand's baseline quality standards across every tier. For specific factory option content, upholstery color selection, exterior gel coat color, and electronic package spec on this specific 2027 NXT24 build, please contact our Kimberling City team for the build sheet specifics.
As a purpose-built V-drive wakeboat, the MasterCraft NXT24 is architected for the specific type of premium wakesurfing that only proper V-drive inboards can deliver — with the propeller and drive shaft positioned well forward under the hull, deep and protected from surface waves, and specifically configured for producing the kind of shaped surf wake that skilled wakesurfers rely on. That said, V-drive wakesurf ownership does require proper setup and operational awareness: the correct minimum wakesurf distance from the transom (industry-standard 20-25 feet minimum surf-rope length), proper ballast distribution for the intended surf side (goofy or regular), appropriate wakesurf-specific propeller selection for surf-wave shaping, and disciplined swim-safety practices around the boat during surf sessions. American Water Sports strongly encourages all V-drive wakeboat owners to review MasterCraft's wakesurf-safety guidelines, follow the industry-standard minimum-distance protocols, and consider whether wakesurf sessions are appropriate for the specific waterbody and passenger group. For buyers cross-shopping V-drive vs forward-drive wakesurf architectures, our current inventory also includes forward-drive alternatives (2025 Cobalt R8 Surf, 2018 Chaparral 257 SSX Surf, new 2027 Regal LS6 Surf) — our team can walk through the honest tradeoffs between the two drive architectures in person.
As a factory-new 2027 model year build, this MasterCraft NXT24 is the absolute-newest-vintage current-generation NXT architecture available — factory-fresh from MasterCraft's Vonore, Tennessee production line, delivered with full factory warranty coverage from MasterCraft on the hull and structural components, and full factory warranty coverage from Ilmor on the MV8 V8 inboard powertrain. Full factory warranty coverage is one of the specific ownership distinctions that separates factory-new from pre-owned MasterCraft ownership — no lingering questions about prior-owner maintenance history, no uncertainty about existing ballast-system or inboard-powertrain conditions, no gray areas about what's covered and what's not. For the buyer who wants the peace of mind that only factory-new delivery can provide, and the confidence of factory warranty coverage on both the MasterCraft hull and the Ilmor powertrain, this 2027 NXT24 delivers that ownership foundation from day one. Combined with American Water Sports' in-house MasterCraft/Ilmor service capability, this NXT24 represents the top of the current-generation entry-tier MasterCraft V-drive wakesurf ownership experience.

Our MasterCraft wakesurf program is genuinely deep — this factory-new 2027 NXT24 represents the accessible entry-tier position and the only NEW MasterCraft in our current inventory, sitting alongside a broad pre-owned selection: 2022 XT25 (mid-tier V-drive), our four-X26 lineup across 2016/2018/2019/2022 vintages (premium X-Series), vintage 2012 X-45 (22-foot vintage V-drive), 2014 X-46 (24-foot vintage V-drive), and 2022/2024 XSTAR S builds (flagship tier). Whichever tier and vintage the MasterCraft buyer is cross-shopping — new NXT entry-tier vs used XT mid-tier vs used X26 premium vs flagship XSTAR — we can walk through the honest tradeoffs across the full lineup. Our current wakesurf inventory also includes forward-drive alternatives (2025 Cobalt R8 Surf, 2018 Chaparral 257 SSX Surf, new 2027 Regal LS6 Surf) for buyers who want the forward-drive-vs-V-drive safety advantage. For the buyer who wants factory-new MasterCraft V-drive wakesurf ownership at the accessible NXT-tier entry price — with full factory warranty coverage on both the MasterCraft hull and Ilmor MV8 powertrain, the accessible 24-foot manageable-platform size, and the factory-authorized dealer service infrastructure that American Water Sports provides — this new NXT24 at our Kimberling City location is one of the most compelling new-wakesurf-boat opportunities in our current inventory this season.
