BoatVerdict market snapshot
These are asking prices. No free or public source publishes US used-boat transaction prices, so nobody — us included — can honestly show you what these boats sold for. What we can show you is what 17 sellers are asking, which is the number you are actually negotiating against.
16 priced listings across 10 states. Enough for a range, not enough to be precise about any single year.
Method: Asking prices from active listings, de-duplicated so a re-posted boat counts once (17 raw listings collapsed to 17 distinct boats). Quartiles, not averages, so one outlier cannot move the band. Rounded to $500.
Coverage: Model years 2017–2026, 10 states, 12 metro areas. New-boat listings excluded.

The BoatVerdict take
- Recall (USCG/CPSC)
12 federal recall campaigns on file touch this builder. Check the specific hull against the recall list below before you put money down; remedies are free but only if the work was actually done.
Each point is tagged with the evidence behind it. Nothing here is a claim we cannot trace back to a counted listing, a federal record, or a named analyst judgement.

The 7 most recently seen of 7 distinct boats. These are asking prices, not sale prices: no free source publishes US used-boat sale prices. A boat re-posted several times counts once, at its latest ask. "Taken down" means the ad disappeared; that can be a sale, a seller who gave up, or an expired post.
MasterCraft recalls and accident record
Of 1,185MasterCraft boats in USCG accident records: fire or explosion 3%, flooding or swamping 5%, capsizing 2%, total loss 5%, at least one death 5%. The rate counts accidents in Texas and New York waters from 2014 to 2023 (47) against 5,302 MasterCraft boats registered in those two states, the only states that publish boat-level registrations. Accident records reflect how and how much boats are used, not only how they are built. Only accidents above the USCG reporting threshold are recorded. Personal watercraft are left out.
These numbers are for the builder, not this model. Check the specific hull with a HIN lookup for recalls and reported accidents.

Engines we actually see on the XT23
- PCM / Indmar ski-wake inboard (GM-based)
Direct-drive / V-drive GM-based inboards in MasterCraft, Malibu, Nautique, and Tige. Reliable powerplants; the risk in a wake boat is the ballast/surf system and hard wakesurf-RPM use, not the engine block. A documented, regularly-serviced wake boat is a safe engine bet.
Service reality: Impeller, transmission fluid, and V-drive oil on schedule. The engine usually outlives the boat's electronics — focus the inspection on ballast pumps and surf actuators.

What to inspect on a used MasterCraft XT23
- PCM / Indmar ski-wake inboard (GM-based): Impeller, transmission fluid, and V-drive oil on schedule. The engine usually outlives the boat's electronics — focus the inspection on ballast pumps and surf actuators. Seen on 7 of the 17 XT23 listings we track (typically 373 hp on this model).
- Get the hour meter reading and divide by the boat's age. Above 120 hours a year is heavy use for a PCM / Indmar ski-wake inboard (GM-based). Threshold from BoatVerdict's engine-family profile for PCM / Indmar ski-wake inboard (GM-based).
This list is specific to this model: analyst items for the hull, plus items driven by the engines and the regions we actually observe on XT23 listings. It is not a generic pre-purchase checklist, and it does not replace a surveyor.
What a XT23 costs to own
$3,750 – $10k per year
- 23 ft hull, the median observed length for this model
- Saltwater berth, based on where most listings we see are located (AL)
- Includes insurance, storage, routine service, fuel at moderate seasonal use, and a reserve for wear items
- Excludes loan payments, major engine replacement, and refit work
This is a modelled band, not observed spend. Real cost swings hard on where you keep the boat and how much you use it.
Method: The same ownership-cost model BoatVerdict's paid Deal Report uses: boat class and length set the base band, then saltwater berth and size adjust it.
