2021 Malibu Wakesetter 25 LSV

Step aboard and you’ll notice how the helm feels more like a luxury SUV than a wake boat, with a low-glare dash, dual screens, and fingertip access to every surf and audio setting. The captain’s chair has a secure, high-back feel, yet swivels so you can stay part of the crew when the engine’s off. Storage is massive and thoughtfully arranged, with wide-opening lockers that swallow boards without wrestling fins. Up front, the bow lounge is deep and secure, great for kids or for stretching out underway. At anchor, the transom bench becomes the best seat in the house, close to the water and the tunes, without feeling cramped or cluttered.

In busy, mixed-use waterways where conditions can change quickly, the 25 LSV’s blend of size and agility really stands out. The substantial hull length offers a confident, dry ride when afternoon chop builds, while still being nimble enough for tight marina maneuvering and crowded launch ramps. Long, winding shorelines and broad open sections are ideal for dialing in long surf runs and consistent wakeboard lines. With room for a big crew and their gear, it’s easy to host day-long outings without returning to the dock. When the breeze picks up or boat traffic stacks up rollers, this model keeps sessions comfortable, controlled, and fun for everyone on board.
