Owner Experience Review
Owners and reviewers consistently position the WAKESETTER 24 MXZfromMALIBUas a surf and wakeboard-first boat. In day-to-day use it often pulls double duty for family cruising with large crews thanks to its roomy bow and social layout, and many owners tow/tube and teach beginners using the adjustable surf/wake settings.
On the water, Surf Gate paired with the Power Wedge offers enough control to “make the wake you want” for different riders. Community feedback also notes that the wave can feel “mushy” and a bit narrower or more skim-style, with more sideways energy than down-press systems from other brands; careful tuning of speed and weight helps, and aggressive wedge/ballast settings can bring noticeable bow rise.
Comfort and features earn praise for space, storage, flip-up seating, a large bow, a flip-down swim step, and a 12-inch command touchscreen, though some owners describe the seats as on the firm side and report occasional electronics/display issues. On maintenance, owner reports list failures ranging from water and fuel pumps to a broken pulley, bad software, a broken wedge motor, a malfunctioning stereo, and delaminating displays; there’s also a fuel-system/fuel-pump recall on certain years, so checking compliance is advised. Some engine/drive work needs special tools and has awkward access, pushing many owners toward dealer service, which can be expensive.
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- Surf Gate and Power Wedge provide broad adjustability to tailor surf and wake profiles for different riders and teaching beginners.
- Spacious 24-foot layout with abundant seating and storage suits large crews and family day trips.

Cons:
- Some owners describe the wave as narrower and “mushy” compared with down-press systems from other brands.
- Aggressive wedge/ballast settings can cause noticeable bow rise, requiring careful tuning of speed and weight.
- Owner-reported failures and a fuel-system/fuel-pump recall on certain years can lead to costly dealer service and demand diligence on maintenance.
