Looking for a new MasterCraft for sale near Table Rock Lake, Missouri? American Water Sports is proud to present this brand-new 2027 MasterCraft XT23 — a factory-fresh 23-foot mid-tier V-drive wakesurf boat from MasterCraft’s XT-Series lineup, positioned above the accessible entry-level NXT-Series and below the premium X-Series and flagship XSTAR, available at our Kimberling City location on Table Rock Lake in the Missouri Ozarks (Stock #MC-XT23.27-CSBM2). This factory-new 2027 XT23 delivers the MasterCraft-Ilmor V8 inboard powertrain, purpose-built V-drive wakesurf hull architecture, integrated ballast systems, mid-tier XT-Series feature content, and full factory warranty coverage that buyers searching for a genuinely capable step-up MasterCraft specifically look for. This is our FOURTH factory-new MasterCraft in current inventory — joining the NXT23 (Stock #MC-NXT23.27-C9AY5, entry-tier 23-foot), NXT24 (Stock #MC-NXT24.27-CBAW2, entry-tier 24-foot), and X24 (Stock #MC-X24.27-PJAR6, premium-tier 24-foot) — giving buyers a genuinely rare four-way NEW MasterCraft cross-shop spanning three tiers and multiple platform sizes at Kimberling City. Whether you’re searching online for “new MasterCraft XT23 for sale”, “new MasterCraft dealer Missouri”, “V-drive wakesurf boat Table Rock Lake”, or “MasterCraft XT-Series near me”, American Water Sports at Kimberling City is your source for this XT23 and the full range of new and pre-owned MasterCraft wakesurf boats in the region.
The MasterCraft XT-Series occupies the meaningful middle tier of MasterCraft’s current lineup — positioned above the accessible entry-level NXT-Series and below the premium X-Series and flagship XSTAR, delivering a genuine step-up in feature content, fit-and-finish, and factory option depth while remaining more accessible than MasterCraft’s top-tier builds. The XT23 specifically represents the smaller-platform entry point into the XT tier — a 23-foot V-drive wakesurf boat that delivers meaningful mid-tier MasterCraft capability at a more-manageable footprint than the larger XT25 platform. For the buyer who has outgrown the accessible NXT-Series but isn’t ready for premium X-Series or flagship XSTAR pricing and feature depth, the XT23 is exactly the purpose-built answer — genuine MasterCraft V-drive wakesurf performance, meaningful factory option content, and the mid-tier positioning that represents one of MasterCraft’s most popular ownership sweet spots. Cross-shops directly against Malibu Wakesetter 23 LSV, Nautique GS22, Supreme S238, and Centurion Ri237 in the mid-tier 23-foot V-drive wakesurf segment.
American Water Sports currently carries four distinct factory-new MasterCraft builds spanning three tiers and multiple platform sizes — a genuinely exceptional cross-shop opportunity at our Kimberling City location. The full current NEW MasterCraft lineup: this XT23 (mid-tier, 23-foot), the NXT23 (entry-tier, 23-foot, Stock #MC-NXT23.27-C9AY5), the NXT24 (entry-tier, 24-foot, Stock #MC-NXT24.27-CBAW2), and the X24 (premium X-Series tier, 24-foot, Stock #MC-X24.27-PJAR6). That four-boat lineup lets buyers cross-shop across every meaningful dimension — same-platform-size tier comparison (XT23 vs NXT23 at 23 feet, entry vs mid-tier), cross-tier progression (NXT to XT to X-Series), and platform-size comparison within tiers. For the buyer specifically comparing entry-tier NXT ownership against a genuine step-up to XT-Series capability, the XT23-vs-NXT23 comparison at the identical 23-foot platform size is a particularly clean and direct cross-shop. For the broader MasterCraft buyer, our current inventory also includes a comprehensive used and vintage selection spanning every era — brokered 2000 Maristar 230, 2012 X-45, 2014 X-46, 2015 X30, five X26 builds across four vintages, 2022 XT25 (used mid-tier sister platform), and 2022/2024 XSTAR S flagship-tier builds. Our team at Kimberling City can walk you through the full MasterCraft lineup in person.
For buyers specifically interested in XT-Series ownership, American Water Sports offers a direct and meaningful cross-shop opportunity: this factory-new 2027 XT23 (23-foot, mid-tier, full factory warranty) alongside our pre-owned 2022 MasterCraft XT25 (25-foot, mid-tier, used pricing). Both share the same core XT-Series positioning and mid-tier MasterCraft-Ilmor powertrain platform, with the specific choice coming down to new-vs-used tradeoffs and platform size: the new XT23 delivers the smaller and more-manageable 23-foot platform with full factory warranty coverage and zero prior-ownership history, while the used XT25 delivers a larger 25-foot platform at used-boat pricing with an established ownership and maintenance history to review. For the buyer who wants the peace of mind of factory-new ownership at the more-accessible 23-foot platform, this new XT23 is the specific answer. For the buyer who prioritizes platform size and used-boat value, the XT25 is worth cross-shopping. Our team at Kimberling City can walk through the specific new-vs-used and platform-size tradeoffs in person.
This new 2027 MasterCraft XT23 is powered by an Ilmor V8 inboard powertrain — MasterCraft’s continuous-partner V8 inboard 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 XT23 configurations use the Ilmor 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, with meaningfully more power headroom than the entry-tier NXT-Series configurations to support the XT tier’s mid-level positioning. 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 XT23’s powertrain has essentially its entire service life ahead of it. For the specific Ilmor MV8 variant on this build, please contact our Kimberling City team for the complete factory build sheet.
The XT23’s 23-foot platform delivers a genuinely capable mid-tier V-drive wakesurf-boat footprint — sized to be manageable for towing, launching, and storage while offering meaningfully more feature content and factory option depth than the accessible entry-tier NXT-Series. The current-generation XT23 layout is purpose-built for the dual wakesurf-and-family-day mission — with integrated ballast systems, factory wakesurf-shaping capability, purpose-built cockpit-and-swim-platform layout, upgraded flooring and upholstery treatments versus entry-tier NXT configurations, 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 mid-tier step-up in the current lineup. For specific factory option content, upholstery color selection, exterior gel coat color, and electronic package spec on this specific 2027 XT23 build, please contact our Kimberling City team for the build sheet specifics.
As a purpose-built V-drive wakeboat, the MasterCraft XT23 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, Pre-Owned 2026 Cobalt R4 Surf, 2018 Chaparral 257 SSX Surf, new 2027 Regal LS6 Surf and LS4 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 XT23 is the absolute-newest-vintage current-generation XT 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 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. Combined with American Water Sports’ in-house MasterCraft/Ilmor service capability, this XT23 represents mid-tier factory-new MasterCraft V-drive wakesurf ownership at the meaningful step-up point in the current lineup.
