If you're searching for a premium wakesurf boat that combines world-class wave performance, low hours, luxury comfort, advanced technology, and years of remaining factory warranty, this 2023 Malibu Wakesetter 22 LSV deserves serious attention.
With only 31 hours, this boat is about as close to new as you can get without paying new-boat pricing. It is powered by the optional Monsoon M6Di 450 direct-injected V8, loaded with Malibu's industry-leading surf and wake technology, and protected by a transferable Malibu factory warranty through 2028.
Finished in a rare and striking custom grey and orange color package, this Wakesetter has an aggressive, high-end appearance that stands out immediately. The orange powder-coated tower, orange Malibu graphics, matching trailer accents, and modern grey gelcoat create a cohesive factory look that is impossible to ignore at the marina, launch ramp, or sandbar.
This is not simply a wake boat. It is a premium, fully equipped watersports platform designed for wakesurfing, wakeboarding, skiing, cruising, entertaining, and spending complete weekends on the water in first-class comfort.
Factory Warranty Through 2028
One of the biggest advantages of this Malibu is the remaining factory warranty coverage through 2028.
Finding a pre-owned luxury wake boat with several years of manufacturer-backed protection remaining is extremely uncommon. It gives the next owner the confidence of buying a nearly new boat while avoiding the cost of ordering a comparable new model.
Warranty Advantages
Transferable Malibu factory warranty through 2028
Several years of manufacturer-backed protection remaining
Added confidence compared with many used wake boats
Reduced uncertainty regarding covered components
Significant value for the next owner
Factory protection while saving substantially from new
This is a major selling point and one that separates this boat from most other pre-owned surf boats on the market.
Optional Monsoon M6Di 450 Performance
Powering this Wakesetter is the highly desirable Malibu Monsoon M6Di 450, a premium direct-injected V8 developed specifically for watersports use.
The M6Di is known for strong low-end torque, smooth power delivery, quiet operation, and confident performance even when the boat is fully loaded with passengers and ballast.
Engine Highlights
Monsoon M6Di 450 direct-injected V8
Premium factory engine option
Only 31 operating hours
Massive low-end torque
Strong hole shot
Smooth throttle response
Quiet operation
Excellent performance under ballast
Refined cruising characteristics
Purpose-built for surf and wake applications
The M6Di is an excellent match for the 22 LSV because it provides the pulling power needed for full ballast and a large crew without feeling strained.
Whether you're launching a surfer, pulling a wakeboarder, cruising to the sandbar, or running across the lake with 14 passengers onboard, the engine responds effortlessly.
Malibu Surf Gate®
Malibu's Surf Gate system helped redefine modern wakesurfing and remains one of the most recognized surf systems in the industry.
Instead of listing the boat to one side, Surf Gate uses electronically controlled surf tabs to shape the wave behind the boat.

Controlled directly through the Malibu Command Center

Power Wedge III Advantages
Electronically adjustable
Changes wave height and shape
Adds virtual ballast effect
Improves surf-wave push
Helps customize wakeboard wakes
Controlled directly from the helm

Whether you want a steeper wakeboard wake, a longer surf pocket, or more wave push, the Power Wedge III gives the driver precise control.
4,000 Pounds of Factory Ballast
This Malibu is equipped with approximately 4,000 pounds of factory ballast, giving it the ability to create professional-quality surf waves and wakeboard wakes without relying on a complicated aftermarket setup.
