Only Used on Private Ski Lake
World records aren't broken. They're made. It's no coincidence that the ProStar 197 hull has helped skiers own more world records and personal bests in the last three years than the rest of its competitors in the ski-boat field. It doesn't discriminate either, holding all three world marks (slalom, trick, and jump) simultaneously. Based on the premise that flat and soft wakes, unwavering pulls, and perfectly straight boat paths inevitably lead to skiing success, it's no wonder that when you have only a few chances in your career to be at your best, you'll depend on a boat that will give you every opportunity to get you there. Choose wisely. Choose the 197.
Standards:
DSI
Instead of old-school pitot pickups, MasterCraft’s under-hull paddlewheel delivers magnetic signals to accurately measure speed without being affected by random debris or atmospheric pressure.
Underwater Gear
Technology has improved even the most traditional underwater gear, holding design specifications within a .005-inch tolerance for superior performance.
In-Tank Fuel Pump
Designed by MasterCraft to maximize fuel efficiency, reduce vapor lock and safeguard boaters, our exclusive in-tank fuel pump pushes fuel to the engine, rather than pulling it.
Spline Shaft
To minimize vibration and prop slippage, our shaft and coupler use a fitted tongue-and-groove design, which requires fewer parts and tools, making maintenance quick and easy.
Hand-Laid Fiberglass
Our hand-laid and hand-rolled fiberglass method—standard since 1983—ensures that each boat receives a calculated lamination schedule in high-stress areas, built to withstand not just years of boating, but decades.
Muffler
Don’t worry about keeping sound down in a MasterCraft. Unlike our competitors, we install noise-reducing fiberglass mufflers on every boat we offer.
Non-Corrosive Hardware
Stainless steel bolts, nuts, screws, washers, clamps, staples, and insert nuts protect every boat’s beauty, integrity, and longevity against the harsh elements of water.
Gauges
Electromechanical Borg Warner instrumentation is driven by proprietary software to read streaming data impulses and deliver unrivaled accuracy.
MasterView Bolster Seat
Don’t get caught short in a seat that doesn’t elevate. Move the comfortable bolster seat into place to boost the driver an additional four inches higher.
Swivel Board Racks
Easily clamp your boards into place for increased stow-away space and swivel your equipment 180° into the boat for boathouse storage (standard on all X-Series boats except the X-1 and X-2).
Multiport EFI
An option for most, our standard electronic fuel injection system increases fuel economy and high-output engine performance, surpassing the archaic yet standard carbureted engines used by the competition.
Ski Pylon
We pull no punches with our pylons. Each is constructed of solid aluminum, anodized to prevent wear and then through-bolted into steel plates eight to 16 times to sustain merciless torque. It’s topped off with a WearGuard nylon inset to prevent rope chafe.
JL Audio System
Have a blast aboard a MasterCraft, with the JL Audio interior and tower speakers, designed exclusively for MasterCraft. Controlled by a premium Clarion head unit, our standard sound optimizes sound clarity inside and out.
Teak Boarding Platform
Big is beautiful: MasterCraft’s oversized teak boarding platform is the perfect place for putting on equipment, teaching young ones how to ski, or getting back on board.
Automatic Bilge System
Forgot to hit the auto bilge switch? Don’t worry. MasterCraft does it for you with a bilge system that automatically senses bilge water level and empties it.
LCD Display
LCD displays depth, hour meter, clock, water temperature, and alarm messages clearly and accurately so you can monitor your MasterCraft’s optimum performance.
Digital Throttle Control
Digital Throttle Control (DTC) operates at the speed of light and without the bulkiness of cables: the throttle “talks” electronically to the engine, allowing for a tow-sport-specific “cruise control.”
38 oz. Vinyl
Your upholstery should look as good as your boat. Premium-grade vinyl with UV protection, mildew resistors, and stain-resistant treatment maintains its shape and color for years.
Ballast System
Rotocast tanks positioned above and beneath the floor utilize their own industrial-sized pumps to quickly ingest up to 1,000 lbs of water weight in under five minutes (Standard on entire X-Series line of boats).
Steering Wheel
Even with an element as basic as a steering wheel, MasterCraft makes you look good on the water. With our four-spoke, vinyl-wrapped, polished aluminum steering wheel, (standard on most models) you’ll make all the turns in style.
Additional Specifications:
Tow Bar Height to Waterline: 29 in.
