2026 MasterCraft NXT23

The 2026 MasterCraft NXT 23 is a 23-foot fiberglass ski and surf boat powered by an Ilmor 5.3L GDI HO VD 1.75 inboard engine producing 365 horsepower. Built for family water sports, it features a Surfstar system, a 3,130-pound ballast setup, and a 65-gallon fuel capacity. The hull is finished in magnetic blue and black gelcoat with a matching fiberglass surf platform dressed in black SeaDek. A pop-up aft ski pylon, transom walkthrough, and stainless steel pop-up cleats support both skiing and surfing pursuits. The Z6 tower arrives as a silver manual unit with swivel board racks and a black canvas bimini top.

The open-concept interior seats multiple occupants across convertible rear seating and a spacious bow area with a filler cushion. Cabin comfort includes black SeaDek flooring, RGB lighting, and heating. A removable built-in cooler, hidden trash bin, in-seat storage, and cell phone pockets address practical needs. The captain's chair features bolster cushioning and charging ports, while in-couch cup holders and charging ports throughout keep passengers connected. A bow subwoofer and Meridian audio system with transom remote provide entertainment.

The helm setup includes a touchscreen display, wireless phone charging mount, push-button start, and navigation lights. Dual battery systems with circuit breakers and a master power switch ensure reliable electrical performance, supported by a battery charger and engine flush kit. A custom 2026 tandem-axle trailer is included with the boat, equipped with black carpeted bunks, swing-away tongue, guide poles, transom straps, a Dutton-Lainson wheeled jack, and hand bow winch.
