I did enjoy the Malibu. Had a plush feel to the interior, great lines, with a 450. No quality issues at all. Bought the 2015 23 LSV in 2019. This was our first wake boat even though I learned to surf behind a G23 which can spoil you. Malibu wave was good for beginner and intermediate surfers. Hearing issues with Malibu quality over the past couple of years. 2015 Malibu was well built. The newer versions have more weight, but you still have PNP bags that limit storage.

Supra SA will compete with the G23 with the wave. G23 is steep with push. Supra doesn't cost as much as G23, but excellent performance. Malibu is a good wave, but more for the middle of the road surfer. At 5800 lbs. with 3500 lbs of ballast with a deeper hull, wave performance is measurably better than the Malibu. Walked onto a Supra SL and Malibu 23 LSV at a boat show. Loved the Supra SA at the dealer. The interior and the 2021 features are top of the line. Subfloor ballast, more storage, heated seats, bow space, transom walk through (bought filler cushion), rear facing seat and table, JL speaker system, lighting, and a great tower. Malibu tower puts the speakers a touch farther back. Need to really blast the speakers. Also, give me JL over any other speaker system.

Not married to any manufacture or what is popular at the lake. Married to quality, feel, and performance. Must do your homework when buying a wake boat. Also tested the MC NXT24. That was a solid boat.
Someone did some homework! lol

Supra sounds perfect for you and your family. I have to admit, first time I've seen anyone cross shop an NXT line with premium towboats. I had originally looked at the NXT line, but could not believe how spartan and featureless they were. They looked cheap. A bow filler cushion wasn't even available, nor was sea deck/gator when I was looking last year. I know MC builds a stout boat for sure, but I wanted a bit more frills for my 100K.
