2008 Manitou 24 X-Plode Cruise

The 24 X-Plode Cruise is a 24-foot pontoon with distinctive styling and sport-focused features. Its V-bow profile and graphics give it a distinctive appearance, while the helm setup emphasizes performance-oriented handling. Powered by a single 250 hp Evinrude engine, the boat reaches speeds up to 50 mph, with a cruising speed around 40 mph.

The boat comes equipped with a JBL audio system featuring one gigabyte of internal storage and MP3 compatibility, paired with four Kicker speakers. Hydraulic power-assisted steering provides responsive control, and the helm includes a color-matched performance gauge package and Dino steering wheel. The 55-gallon fuel tank supports extended outings.

Standard features include extruded aluminum lifting strakes for performance, SHP hull construction with underskinning, an activity locker for storage, and a Sunbrella top for weather protection. The 8.5-foot beam provides stability typical of the pontoon platform.
