Problem Solver. Direct-drive enthusiasts needed a 23-foot boat option with a comforting, wraparound rear lounge and a functional center sundeck. Malibu’s engineers responded with the Wakesetter 23 XTi, a boat that has garnered two “Boat of the Year” awards out of the last five years of Malibu wins. The midship location of the Monsoon 340, with Indmar’s multi-port fuel injection and new environmentally friendly ETX/CAT Exhaust, gives the Wakesetter 23 XTi a quick, nimble performance as well as a soft, flat wake at skiing speeds. When you fill the 900 pound Malibu Launch System (MLS) and deploy an optional Wedge, this Jekyll becomes Hyde with monster ramps for wakeboarding fun.
