2026 Nautique G23

Admiral Blue metal flake over Arctic White and Tungsten Grey. This new 2026 Super Air Nautique G23, stock #4748, is the most awarded wake boat in the industry in one of its best colour combinations, and it is specified with the equipment that matters.

The engine is the PCM ZZ6 6.2L Direct Injection Coastal Edition producing 465 horsepower. Coastal Edition is the detail worth knowing: it adds closed cooling and enhanced corrosion protection over the standard engine. Even on fresh water, that specification means the cooling system runs on a sealed circuit with proper coolant rather than raw lake water, which is genuinely better for engine longevity and resale.

The surf hardware is the full Nautique system, built around Waveplate technology, the hydraulically actuated transom plate that shapes and switches the wave in seconds without moving ballast. Combined with the G23's hull, it produces the legendary surf waves and world-class wakeboard wakes the model is known for.

Three pieces of equipment lift this particular boat. The helm carries a 12.4-inch LINC Panoray touchscreen, controlling ballast, wave shape, speed, lighting, and stored rider profiles from one display. The Flight Control Tower is the actuated telescoping version, so it raises and lowers under power rather than requiring anyone to climb up and wrestle with pins, which is what lets a 23-footer clear a covered slip or a garage door. And audio is the JL Audio M6 premium system with tower speakers, with RGB interior and underwater lighting for evenings.

At 6,000 lbs dry on an 8-foot 6-inch beam with 65 gallons aboard, 31.25 inches of draft, and seating for sixteen, the practical numbers are well judged for a full day of sets with two families along.

Why this is the right boat: the G23 remains the benchmark. It throws a wave good enough that experienced riders stop making excuses, it is forgiving enough that a beginner gets up on the first afternoon, and this one is specified with the Coastal Edition engine and the actuated tower, which are the two options we would tell you to insist on.

It is new and in our indoor showroom in Osage Beach. Kelly's Port has been family owned on the Lake of the Ozarks since 1977, and we set these boats up on the water with your riders rather than handing over a manual. Call 573.348.3888 for pricing and availability on stock #4748.
