This summer, Casper Marine & Recreation is bringing our newest boats straight to the water, and you’re invited to take the wheel. We’ve teamed up with Alcova Resort to host Alcova Surf Fest, a two-day weekend of boats, sunshine, and on-the-water test rides on Alcova Reservoir.

If you’ve been eyeing a new surf boat, this is the rare chance to feel the difference yourself before you ever talk numbers. No showroom floor, no guesswork, just you, open water, and the 2026 MasterCraft lineup running the way it’s meant to.

 

Three New MasterCraft Models

We’re bringing out our latest inventory for back-to-back test rides. Each boat runs in hourly slots so you get real time behind the wheel, not a quick lap around the dock.

MasterCraft X24 – The flagship of the surf lineup. A big, confident hull that throws a serious wave and carries the whole crew in comfort. If you want one boat that does everything well, this is where to start.

MasterCraft XT23 – The crossover everyone asks about. Premium surf performance with a more approachable footprint, built for families who want top-tier wakes without sizing all the way up.

MasterCraft NXT22 – The smart entry into the MasterCraft world. Honest performance, clean design, and the easiest way into surf-boat ownership without giving up the name on the hull.

Not sure which one fits? That’s exactly what the weekend is for. Ride more than one, compare them back to back, and let the water make the case.

 

What to Expect

Alcova Surf Fest runs across two days, built to be an easy, no-pressure time on the reservoir. Bring the family, bring your suit, and plan to spend a few hours. Test rides run in hourly slots, with our team on hand to walk you through each boat, answer questions, and get you set up for your turn on the water.

Our crew will be there to talk through models, options, and what ownership actually looks like, but the day is about the ride first. The conversation can come later.
