The model features the Malibu Surf Gates and the Infinity Power Step swim platform, which, according to the yard, allow you to surf as you should. The most popular version is the Black Edition, featuring a black gelcoat finish on the hull and hull halves, black metal trim around the windscreen, and an interior finished in soft silicone upholstery in Cayenne with black accents.
The hull length is 8.53 metres and the beam is 2.59 metres. The dry weight is approximately 2,767 kilograms. The draught is 0.79 m (propulsion system raised). The air draft is 2.08 metres (arch lowered), and 2.74 metres with the arch raised. All measurements have been converted to the metric system based on the yard’s specifications.
The yard states a maximum power output of 437 hp. The propulsion system is a forward-facing Volvo Penta sterndrive, which, according to the yard, offers versatility, greater comfort for those on board, good fuel efficiency and a wide range of trim options. The Malibu Surf Gate is hydraulically operated and transforms the wake into a wave suitable for surfing. The wave can be switched from left to right without passengers having to move; it is operated via the touchscreen or an optional wristband. The hull is made of fibreglass, as is customary for this builder.
The fuel tank holds 302.83 litres. There is 56.78 litres available for drinking water. The deadrise at the stern is 22 degrees. The cladding on all 2026 models is made from SiO silicone material, which, according to the yard, is virtually maintenance-free and highly resistant to scratches and abrasion. Each hull comes with a lifetime limited warranty, whilst the components are covered by a five-year limited warranty.
