Axis T23 Boats for Sale
The Axis T23 is one of the largest and most capable traditional-bow boats in the Axis lineup, combining big-water performance with family-friendly space and comfort. Since its debut in 2015, the T23 has been a favorite for riders who want the biggest wakes and waves in a clean, classic design. With seating for up to 16 people, massive ballast capacity, and Axis’ signature Surf Gate and Power Wedge technology, the T23 continues to deliver pro-level performance with the straightforward operation and durability Axis is known for.
Introduced for the 2015 model year, the Axis T23 quickly became a standout in the Axis family thanks to its size, handling, and consistent performance across all water conditions. At 23 feet long with a 102-inch beam, the T23 provides one of the largest interiors in the Axis lineup, making it ideal for big crews and riders who want maximum wake and surf capability without moving up to a full 25-foot boat.
Early Models (2015–2018)
The first-generation T23 shared Axis’ proven performance hull design, optimized for clean wakeboarding wakes and strong surf waves with plenty of push. Early versions were powered by Malibu’s Monsoon 350 engine, with optional upgrades for more torque. These boats offered Axis’ signature no-nonsense approach—simple analog-style controls, rugged interior materials, and straightforward ballast operation. The traditional bow gave it a classic look and a smooth, confident ride through chop, making it a great all-around choice for both wakeboarding and wakesurfing.
Refinements and Upgrades (2019–2021)
Between 2019 and 2021, Axis introduced several updates that improved both performance and comfort. Surf Gate and Power Wedge II (and later Power Wedge III) allowed riders to adjust wave size and shape instantly, while the upgraded ballast system increased total capacity to over 4,100 pounds. The interior received softer materials, deeper seating, and a more ergonomic driver’s area. Engine options expanded to include Malibu’s Monsoon M5Di and M6Di direct-injection powerplants, delivering quieter, cleaner operation and improved fuel economy.
Current Generation (2022–Present)
The Axis T23 remains in production today as one of the flagship traditional-bow models in the Axis line. The current version benefits from refined styling, a fully digital helm, and enhanced fit and finish across the cockpit. Surf Gate and Power Wedge III come standard, giving riders precise control over wake size and shape. With seating for up to 16 people, ample storage, and the strength of Malibu’s composite construction, the T23 continues to be a go-to choice for families and serious wake enthusiasts alike.
Legacy and Appeal
Across all model years, the T23 has built a reputation for reliability, versatility, and value. It bridges the gap between Axis’ smaller T220 and the larger T250, offering a sweet spot of space and performance. Whether you’re considering an early used model or the latest edition, the Axis T23 delivers proven wake performance backed by Malibu engineering and the durability to handle years of hard riding.
