Nautique G25 Paragon Boats for Sale
The Nautique G25 Paragon is a 25-foot ultra-luxury wake boat with elite-level surf and wake performance, premium tech, and massive space. Featuring a 600 HP supercharged engine, surf systems, dual thrusters, and luxury seating, it’s the ultimate flagship for big crews and big water. No boat offers more size, power, or refinement in one package.
The G25 Paragon is Nautique’s largest and most luxurious wake boat ever built. It sits at the absolute apex of the inboard world — designed for those who want uncompromising wakesurf and wakeboard performance, paired with the refinement and space of a luxury sport yacht. With over 30 years in inboard boat expertise, I can say definitively: no boat offers more size, power, and tech in one platform.
Overview & Design Philosophy
Unveiled in 2021, the G25 Paragon was built to be the ultimate evolution of the G-series. Based on the already popular G25 hull, the Paragon edition adds:
A completely redesigned transom
Actuated tower, helm seat, and integrated tech
A more aggressive surf and wake profile
Every luxury option, standard
If the G23 Paragon is the flagship of the 23-foot class, the G25 Paragon is the emperor of the full-size segment — no compromises.
