Introducing the 2026 MasterCraft ProStar — the most decorated tournament ski boat in the world, purpose-built for slalom, jump, and trick skiing at the highest level. Now available at American Water Sports on Table Rock Lake in Missouri, this 20-foot ProStar (Stock #MC-PROSTAR.26-9NBV5) is finished in an eye-catching Sierra Dune / White hull with a Midnight Black accent and a Bowmore Beach Tan interior with Reflex Titanium pleat detailing and Deckadence Gray flooring. Powered by the factory Ilmor 6.0L MPI D-Drive (1.26:1) with the V3 SkiPro Propeller and the proven PureFlow strut, and optioned with the MTS Ballast System, Activ-View Panoramic mirror, fiberglass bow cover with removable rear seating, and port/starboard ski racks, this ProStar is tournament-ready and road-trip-ready straight off the trailer.
The ProStar is the standard. It’s the boat behind more AWSA tournaments, more Masters titles, and more professional slalom records than any other ski boat in the world — and MasterCraft has spent decades refining it into the cleanest, most predictable skiing platform on the water. Every element is purpose-built for ski: the direct-drive configuration centers the engine’s weight for a flat, clean, narrow wake; the Torqued Rudder keeps the boat tracking dead straight under load; the MODS MasterCraft Oscillation Dampening System suppresses vibration; and the ProStar hull — hand-laid with an integrated stringer system — is built stiff, light, and repeatable. If you or your skier are chasing 35-off buoys on Table Rock or competing in AWSA circuits across the Midwest, this is the tool for the job.
Power comes from the factory Ilmor 6.0L MPI D-Drive V8 with a 1.26:1 D-Drive ratio — a proven combination of torque, throttle response, and pull consistency that world-class skiers specifically request. The V3 SkiPro Propeller is matched to the ProStar hull for strong hole shot, clean speed transitions, and perfect on-course acceleration, and Teleflex electronic throttle and shift with billet knob delivers finger-light command. Down-turn exhaust routes engine sound away from the skier, and the Zero Off Speed Control System — integrated into the 10-inch touchscreen Command Center with ProStar Software — holds GPS-accurate tournament speed through every buoy. This is the same Zero Off / ProStar software combination you’ll find at every AWSA-sanctioned event in the country.
Every ProStar detail is engineered for ski. The fixed pylon delivers rope loads straight into the hull centerline. Tracking Fins keep the boat steady on the 3 and 5 buoy-side pulls. The ProStar adjustable helm seat and flip-up aft-facing judges seat put the driver and observer exactly where the rules book says they need to be. The self-draining cockpit, water-resistant glove boxes, and safety lanyard kill switch cover the daily essentials. Integrated Ice Radio with Bluetooth, four Klipsch 7-inch speakers, a 6-channel amp with DPS, and a wireless charging pad keep communication and training tunes on the water with you. Bow seating with grab rails, teak wood swim platform, chrome thru-hulls, ProStar windshield with brushed aluminum header, and the gunnel trim in black with stainless steel complete a finished, premium package.
This specific 9NBV5 has been thoughtfully optioned to blend tournament capability with all-day family use. The MTS Ballast System lets you add hull-centered water weight when you want a heavier free-ski wake for recreational slalom or for younger skiers learning the course. The fiberglass bow cover with removable rear seating option lets you run a traditional closed-bow tournament look on training days and drop the seats in for family cove days. Transom Rail with Tow-Eye, transom scratch protection, port and starboard ski racks, bow and stern pull-up cleats, the acrylic walk-through door, and the Activ-View Panoramic Mirror round out the package so the boat is as comfortable on a weekend float with friends as it is on a Saturday-morning slalom pass.
