American Water Sports is pleased to offer this pre-owned 2010 Tigé RZ4 - the largest, premium-tier flagship of Tigé's late-2000s/early-2010s R-class V-drive surf/wake lineup. Available at our Kimberling City location on Table Rock Lake (Stock #U-AR-0199D, Hull #TIX0199DL910), this RZ4 is a 24-foot premium V-drive built by Tigé Boats - the Abilene, Texas builder that sits in the so-called "Big Four" of premium American inboard ski/wake boat manufacturers alongside MasterCraft, Malibu, and Nautique. The RZ4 specifically was the flagship-class platform in Tigé's R-Series lineup during this era - sized larger than the smaller RZ2 (22-foot) and the ASR (23-foot) you'll also see in our pre-owned inventory, and offering the kind of 24-foot cockpit room, wave amplitude, and platform refinement that defined Tigé's flagship-tier positioning. For the buyer cross-shopping vintage premium V-drive surf/wake boats - particularly comparing to comparable MasterCraft X-45 builds at the same 24-foot length - this 2010 Tigé RZ4 represents Tigé's premium answer at a value vintage price point.
Why a Tigé RZ4?
Tigé Boats is one of the so-called "Big Four" premium inboard ski/wake boat builders - built in Abilene, Texas since 1991, Tigé sits alongside MasterCraft, Malibu, and Nautique at the top of the inboard ski/wake industry, with a distinct brand identity centered on wakesurf innovation, Texas-build craftsmanship, and aggressive sport-oriented styling. Tigé has historically been a leader in wakesurf technology - the TAPS (Tigé Adjustable Performance System) wake-shaping platform was one of the earliest production wake-shaping systems in the industry. The RZ4 specifically sat at the top of Tigé's R-class V-drive lineup during this vintage - sized larger than the RZ2 (22 feet) and ASR (23 feet), and tuned for buyers who wanted Tigé's premium wake-shaping capability at the largest 24-foot cockpit footprint. By 2010, the RZ4 ran TAPS 2 wake-shaping (TAPS 3 came later in the 2013-2014 timeframe) and was thoroughly wakesurf-capable with appropriate ballast and surf-side protocol. For the buyer cross-shopping vintage premium V-drives at the larger 24-foot length, the RZ4 represents Tigé's flagship answer - the next size up from comparable MasterCraft X-30 vintage builds.
Indmar V8 Inboard with V-Drive - Premium-Spec Powertrain (Verify with Dealer)
Power on this RZ4 comes from an Indmar V8 inboard with V-drive transmission - Indmar Marine builds the engine programs for Tigé out of the same Tennessee facility that produces engines for other Big-Four inboard manufacturers. RZ4 builds from the 2010 model year typically came with the Indmar 5.7L MEFI-spec V8 or the larger 6.0L V8 option depending on the original-owner specification - both well-respected premium powertrains for the 24-foot V-drive platform. Indmar engines are well-supported by any competent marine inboard mechanic, and parts and service availability through Tigé's dealer network and independent shops is broadly developed. With premium V8 displacement on a 24-foot V-drive surf platform, this powertrain delivers the kind of broad torque curve and ballast-pulling authority that the segment requires. For exact engine displacement, horsepower rating, calibration spec, and current engine hour reading on this specific 2010 RZ4 - please contact our Kimberling City team for the build specifics.
TAPS 2 Wake-Shaping & Premium Surf-Wave Engineering
The 2010 RZ4 ran TAPS 2 (Tigé Adjustable Performance System, 2nd generation) - Tigé's signature wake-shaping platform and one of the more-developed surf-wave technologies of the era. TAPS 2 was a transom-mounted, hydraulic-actuated wake-shaping plate that deployed at the helm to shape and amplify the wake on either the port or starboard side of the boat - creating a dedicated, rideable surf wave that responded to driver inputs in real time. Combined with factory ballast (Tigé's ballast plumbing from this era used hard-tank and/or plumbed-bag configurations depending on build) and the proper rope-side surfer protocol, TAPS 2 enabled the RZ4 to throw a serious wakesurf wave on demand - particularly amplified by the larger 24-foot RZ4 hull versus the smaller R-class platforms. While TAPS 2 predates the more-refined TAPS 3 system that came later in the 2013-2014 timeframe, the 2010 RZ4 was firmly in the wakesurf-capable era. The exact current TAPS 2 actuator and ballast system status on this RZ4 is documented in person at our Kimberling City location.
V-Drive Surf/Wake Capability & Wakesurf Safety Notes
The RZ4's V-drive inboard configuration places the engine amidships with the V-drive transmission running the prop shaft aft under the hull - placing the prop further back and the engine weight further aft than a traditional direct-drive ski boat. This produces the kind of wake geometry wakeboarders and wakesurfers want. For wakesurfing specifically, V-drive boats require the surfer to stay on the side of the wave OPPOSITE the prop's spinning direction - Tigé and other V-drive manufacturers indicate the safe rope side at the helm, and surfers should follow the manufacturer's surf-side recommendation rigorously. By 2010, V-drive wakesurfing was firmly mainstream and widely-supported across the segment - though the industry has since moved toward forward-drive propulsion (Volvo Penta Forward Drive, MasterCraft NXT-series, Regal Surf-class) on dedicated surf platforms because forward-drive places the prop physically far in front of the surfer for additional safety margin. For the wakesurfer who prefers the V-drive-class wake character at a meaningful cost savings vs. current-model surf boats, the RZ4 platform remains one of the more credible larger-format premium V-drive options.
24-Foot Premium Surf/Wake Platform - Right-Sized for Table Rock Big Days
The RZ4's 24-foot platform is right-sized for serious surf/wake duty on Table Rock Lake's bigger water - particularly valuable on windier days when the larger hull keeps the wave cleaner and the cockpit drier than a smaller platform. The extra 1-2 feet over a 22-foot or 23-foot V-drive translates directly into more cockpit passenger space, more storage volume, and the kind of larger-platform stability that big-water surf/wake families come to appreciate. The cockpit layout is purpose-built for surf/wake duty - wraparound passenger seating, helm-and-companion seating up front, observer seating at the transom for the spotter (required by Missouri lake regulations for towed-rider activities), integrated swim platform with boarding ladder, and the kind of robust ski-tow eye and wakeboard tower hardware the segment requires. Tower configuration, board racks, tower-mounted speakers, audio system, helm electronics, and trailer status on this specific RZ4 are documented in person at Kimberling City.

Overview
The Taiga RZ4 is a 24-foot multi-sport boat designed to deliver professional wakeboard performance combined with racer-edge styling and exceptional handling. Building on the success of the 22-foot RZ2, the RZ4 offers increased space to accommodate larger groups of family and friends. It features a patented Convex V-Hull and TAPS2 technology, enabling world-class wakeboard and surfing wakes without the need for ballast or drag hardware. The boat is designed to provide a dry, comfortable ride with outstanding fuel efficiency, making it a versatile and functional water-sport platform.
Exterior Design and Activity Center
From the exterior, the RZ4 showcases distinctive shark-eye lights, bold graphics, and functional bow air intakes. The twin cross-fed fuel tanks feature stainless steel gas fills, complemented by custom cleats and stainless steel engine vents. The transom activity center includes a full-width swim platform with a non-slip surface, facilitating easy water access and preparation for skiing or wakeboarding. The sun pad is spacious enough to comfortably accommodate two people at anchor and doubles as the engine cover. A standard ski pylon is positioned just aft of the rear bench seat back, enhancing the boat’s utility for water sports.
Interior Layout and Storage
The seating arrangement wraps from the port side observer’s lounge to behind the driver’s seat, providing ample room for passengers. The port side offers 64 cubic feet of continuous storage extending from stern to bow, where optional ballast bladders are housed. The lounger behind the helm includes a locking compartment for secure storage, and the seat base conceals an insulated cooler. The observer’s dash area is equipped with a stereo system and a 12-volt charging connection for portable devices. Overall, the interior is designed for comfort and functionality, supporting both leisure and active water sports.
Power and Performance
The RZ4 is powered by a GM Vortec 5.7-liter MPI engine, available in 340 or 400 horsepower configurations. The boat’s patented TAPS2 system allows for quick adjustments to wake shape and size, with controls conveniently located on the throttle shifter and speed set functions accessible from the helm. Performance testing under challenging conditions with six passengers aboard demonstrated the RZ4’s solid handling and smooth transitions between slalom and wake modes. The boat achieved a 0 to 30 mph acceleration in 9.61 seconds and a top speed of 39.8 mph with nearly full fuel tanks. Fuel efficiency is notable, with a range of approximately 70 miles at 21 mph and 3,000 rpm.
Capacity and Dimensions
Measuring 24 feet in length overall with a beam of 102 inches, the RZ4 is rated to carry up to 17 people and a combined load capacity of 2,715 pounds including passengers and gear. The boat’s dry weight is approximately 4,485 pounds, and it holds up to 48 gallons of fuel with a draft of 26 inches. An optional ballast system adds 900 pounds of capacity, enhancing wake performance without compromising handling.
Handling and Ride Quality
The RZ4 demonstrated exceptional handling even in moderate to rough water conditions, maintaining a stable and comfortable ride. The seats effectively absorbed shocks from choppy water, and turns were smooth and controlled. The boat’s broad pickle fork bow design helps manage spray, though some spray was noted in windy, choppy conditions, which is typical for this style of hull. The ergonomic helm design allows the captain to maintain control comfortably, with intuitive access to all necessary controls and displays.
