I just finished the Mojo vs. Makai debate with myself. Decided on the Makai and am glad I did. Initially I was leaning toward the Mojo because it was a little smaller and thus more maneuverable. I read another post somewhere in this forum where the question was asked, "have you ever heard someone say my boat is too big?" So I started looking at the Makai and was shocked at how well that big ole tub could move around.
It is a new design so there a hand full of little things that are improved over the Mojo such as hinged seats, cell phone holders, in floor garbage, all sub floor ballast. The surf wave is amazing. Never took time to dial in the Mojo wave so I can not give a good comparison of the two. As of today we started dialing in a long steep wave that was tons of fun. If you have not decided yet, I hope this helps
