As any busy family of five, the Weichen Family lives a fast-paced lifestyle. But when they are out in their Malibu Wakesetter 23 LSV, they are all about the water.


Mr. Weichen is a third-generation native of Ocala, FL, and grew up on Lake Weir, an idyllic body of water surrounded by nature and the old Florida charm that has passed so many other towns by. Growing up on the lake, he tested his mettle at watersports and became a veritable waterman in his own right. He passed that passion for the water down to his kids with years of wakeboarding, wakesurfing, and boating lessons behind various brands. That is until he and his family settled into the 23 LSV.

Watch The Weichen Family's 23 LSV Story

The 23 LSV is the best-selling towboat of all time for good reason: it pairs exceptional wake performance with standout storage capacity, classic lines, and cutting-edge technology along with Malibu’s signature styling and ease of use. And with its 16-person capacity and still-manageable length, the 23 LSV checked all the boxes for the Weichen family as well.

But with two kids in college and one in high school, Mr. Weichen’s family gets pulled in a lot of different directions, and this could easily have been the end of their lake story. Instead, on weekends and holidays, his college kids migrate back to the lake with friends in tow for an epic weekend of surfing, wakeboarding, water skiing, and tubing.

“What brings me the most joy in my life is 100% being with my family. The more time I can spend with them, the better it is.”

With its legendary versatility, the 23 LSV provides endless wakes and waves for wakeboarders and wake surfers alike while still providing the comfort, ease of use, and style to go for a dinner cruise at the end of the day.

For the Weichen family, their 23 LSV is so much more than a boat. It’s a ticket to family togetherness in an outdoor setting where they can make memories that will last a lifetime. “I’ve had some of the best memories and the best times out on the boat with my family and my friends at the lake,” says his daughter. “They’re something that I’ll always cherish.” With the ever-expanding world, their kids are living in, the boat brings everyone back for some classic fun that no tablet or screen can ever match.
