Every Moomba comes off the same Maryville, Tennessee production line as every Supra, built by the same Skier’s Choice crew. Both are hand-laid fiberglass over a unibody stringer system, bonded to the hull in the mold and then filled with structural foam.
So Moomba vs Supra is not a clash of two engineering philosophies. The comparison is about where one brand stops adding and the other keeps going.
How Moomba and Supra Compare on Paper
| MODEL | LENGTH | SEATING | BALLAST |
| Moomba Mondo | 20 ft | 12 | 3,800 lbs |
| Moomba Craz | 22 ft | 15 | 4,500 lbs |
| Supra SL | 23 ft 5 in | 16 | 4,500 lbs |
| Supra SE | 24 ft 5 in | 18 | 4,700 lbs |
Specifications from the 2026 Watersports Boat Buyers Guide, Wakeboarding Magazine, and Boating Magazine.
A Moomba Craz and a Supra SL carry identical ballast. The Supra runs 17 inches longer and seats one more person. That’s the entire measurable gap between the two mid-lineup boats, so the real question is what the price difference is buying.
What Supra Adds Beyond the Basics
Supra built its name in tournament skiing before the market moved toward wakeboarding and wakesurfing, and it’s the official towboat of the Pro Wakeboard Tour. The current lineup is four boats, the SV, SA, SL, and SE, running from just under 22 feet to 24 feet 5 inches.
The technology is where Supra spends. AutoWake reads the boat’s running attitude and corrects it automatically, so the driver isn’t chasing trim and ballast by hand. The Swell Surf System shapes the wave itself, and the Vision Control Center puts media, surf, wake, maps, and lighting on 12 inch and 15 inch displays.
The SA is the tour boat. It packs 4,100 pounds of ballast into a 22-foot-5-inch hull that seats 15, with a center-mounted SmartPlate that steepens or flattens the wave for whoever’s riding.
Moomba Makes the Expensive Features Standard
Moomba’s whole premise is that most of what makes a towboat work should come standard rather than optioned. The Flow Surf System and AutoWake run across the 2026 lineup, five boats from the 20-foot Mondo through the Max, Craz, and Mojo to the 24-foot Tykon.
The 2026 Mondo is the clearest example. It carries 3,800 pounds of ballast against a 4,000-pound dry weight, so a full system nearly doubles what the boat weighs. Boating Magazine listed it at $123,510 and called it possibly the best bang for the buck under 21 feet.
Ballast that aggressive on a hull that small is unusual. It’s also why the Mondo gets mistaken for a bigger boat in the water.
The Engine Options Overlap More Than You’d Expect
Both brands pull from the same Indmar Raptor engine family, so the power question isn’t Supra strong, Moomba weak. A Craz runs the Raptor 400 standard, and that already covers the performance range most buyers on Whitefish Lake or Flathead will ever use.
Supra stretches further at the top. The supercharged Raptor 575 makes 510 horsepower with Roush supercharging, and that extra power earns its keep on the bigger hulls loaded with people, ballast, and gear.
Through the middle of both lineups, you’re often looking at the same engine in both boats. The real difference comes down to hull, ballast setup, weight, and options, not the badge on the side.
The Warranty Difference That Matters on Resale
Both brands carry a limited lifetime structural warranty on deck, hull, floor, and stringers. Moomba adds five years on parts and components and one year on gel coat. Supra runs five years of base coverage, three on the dash system, and one on gel coat.
The part that catches people out is the transfer. Supra’s lifetime structural coverage applies to the first owner only, and once transferred, it becomes ten years measured from the original sale date, not the resale.
Moomba’s structural warranty transfers to a second owner through a dealer, with a transfer fee and an inspection, and only the time left from the first owner’s purchase carries across. The Indmar powertrain warranty has a separate transfer process of its own on top of the hull coverage.
None of that is hidden. It’s just spread across three documents, and most buyers find it after the sale rather than before.
What the Price Difference Really Buys
Interior finish, standard technology, and display size. That’s the honest list. The hull engineering, the surf system concept, and most of the engine options carry across both brands. A spec table can’t settle whether that’s worth the money, and this one doesn’t try. Buyers who spend most of their time riding tend to conclude a Moomba puts the money in the right place. Buyers who sit in the boat as much as they ride behind it go Supra, and both are reasoning correctly from different priorities.
The useful move is to stop comparing brands and compare two specific boats. A Craz against an SL, with the same engine selected on both, is a real comparison; Moomba against Supra in the abstract is not. Both sit in the same wake boat lineup at the dealership in Whitefish, MT, so you can walk them back to back.
One note for anyone running the numbers. Because the structural coverage survives resale differently, the brand that looks cheaper at purchase isn’t automatically the cheaper one across a trade cycle. Work that through alongside financing before committing either way.
