I have owned it for 20 yearsSun, 03 May 2026 16:33:30 +0000Is the 2277 still available?Sat, 02 May 2026 17:30:32 +0000The updated software on the 25 Alpha helped the cleanliness and consistency. This software was updated in September last year and is retroactive so it can be used on all 25 Alpha models. The 25 wave is massive. It can be taller and longer than the 23 wave with extra weight on board. The 25 more surface area so the more weight and people you bring on the better and better it gets. Stock with 2 people on board will still throw a 23 wave. The 23 Alpha I think is a more consistent wave time and time again no matter how much weight or where people are sitting. It really comes down to how you will use the boat, if you're taking out a lot of people or need a dryer boat for large lakes that get rough I would go 25. If you don't need the extra room or freeboard then the 23 is a wave workhorse.Sat, 18 Apr 2026 17:47:04 +0000is this the tower to avoid?

Thank you.Fri, 17 Apr 2026 16:09:46 +0000I’ve found a barely used 2017 F24 but it has this tower. Should I run away from it? ThanksFri, 17 Apr 2026 14:44:21 +0000I realize this is an old post but I found a barely used MB F24 with this tower. Is there an easy fix or should I run from it. ThanksFri, 17 Apr 2026 14:41:45 +0000I’ve located a very clean low hour 2017 F24 I’d like to purchase but this tower issue scares me. Is there a fix/parts for this issue or should I avoid this tower? ThanksFri, 17 Apr 2026 14:35:56 +0000Hi All. I have a friend who is interested in getting an MB. He’s torn between a 2026 23’ and a 2025 25’, both are Alphas. I personally am a fan of the 23, but the dealer is telling him that in fall of last year MB updated the surf tab software on the 25’ and it now has an equally impressive wave. First I’ve hear of this. True story? Thanks!Thu, 16 Apr 2026 21:06:13 +0000My lake water temp sensor always reads around 80 degrees, regardless of water temp. Not sure if it’s related to the screen software update I did or the sensor itself, so I’d like to investigate. Wondering if anyone can tell me where the sensor is located?Sat, 04 Apr 2026 12:28:48 +0000Has anyone updated the software on the 2016/2017 screen to the newest software to help with the GSA tabs and deployment? I know you lose the ability to adjust them manually (which I don't care for) but instead get them to deploy before even taking off and ensuring they actually get to 100%.Sat, 28 Feb 2026 00:01:44 +0000Did you ever figure out what that connection/vent on the upper starboard side of the transom is? Update: You probably know this, but it's a fuel vent.Thu, 11 Dec 2025 23:03:05 +0000Did you ever figure this out?Thu, 11 Dec 2025 18:07:18 +0000Hi I have a 2017 tomcat f22, during the export process several components was stolen, can anybody tell me were the Bilge pump is Located in a similar boat, found some cut wires in the hard tank valve compartment. Any picos apreciatedThu, 11 Dec 2025 14:48:20 +0000Happy late thanksgiving!Mon, 08 Dec 2025 00:12:29 +0000Happy Thanksgiving!Thu, 27 Nov 2025 23:55:28 +0000El reemplazo de la sentina consiste en cambiar o reparar la bomba que elimina el agua acumulada en el barco; es un proceso rápido si sigues las instrucciones básicas, casi tan práctico como usar una calculadora fácil para resolver un cálculo.Mon, 17 Nov 2025 21:54:41 +0000Sorry it took so long to respond. Just saw your post. Usually pull kids 16 -20mph. Around 25, with no ballast, the wake cleans up nicely. But that’s just too fast for wakeboarding. Throughout this summer I’ve identified that center trim plate doesn’t always return to ‘fully retracted’. Sometimes it stays about 3/4” deployed and I have to run it down a little then back up to get it all the way up. That has definitely helped, but the major contributor is the FAE and I’m still looking for a solution to that. Considering having a buddy get creative with a new shaped plate. I’ll report back if that dream ever becomes a reality.Sun, 26 Oct 2025 12:47:10 +0000I wouldn't add a wake shaper since you already have surf tabs, unless someone else has had success on the F24. You might call the boat shack and see what they suggest. I think they have sold a few F24's. I would recommend using plug-and-play bags as my next step, then optimizing the steel shot by moving it around. Play with your speed as well.Wed, 08 Oct 2025 00:12:45 +0000Thanks- I added 550 steel shot and it got bigger. I think I need to double that and spread it out. Might be easier to add a plug and play bags on top of my hard tanks. Also thinking about a wave shaper. What’s everyone like for those?Tue, 07 Oct 2025 22:51:15 +0000Have you tried running a wave maker on the side of the boat?Mon, 06 Oct 2025 23:43:45 +0000Is the wave clean or mushy? If it's a bit mushy I would try adding a wake shaper to that boat. Are you using center cav plate when making the wave? 24 is a big boat and will want weight to help sink it down. Generally weight near the back (transom) will generate push and a taller wave. Weight towards the front will help lengthen the wave. I would start with adding more weight near the transom and on the side you're trying to get the wave on.Fri, 26 Sep 2025 21:27:56 +0000I ordered the same strainer this week. I've always been concerned with the stock strainer and the cheap plastic fittings on it. One of them breaks and there's no way to shut it off. I was wondering if the thru hull was threaded, but looks like it is! I guess I need to head to the hardware store.Thu, 25 Sep 2025 18:42:29 +0000
