I wrote J.D. Power and asked them the exact same thing
Bret,
Thank you for your e-mail. We are aware of the similarities of the engines among the Ski/Wakeboard brands in the segments. The brands receive different ratings on the engine, not by us, J.D. Power, but by actual owners of these boats. It is the actual customers that rate their satisfaction of the boat and engine and apparently MasterCraft owners are more satisfied with their Indmar engine than owners of other boat brands.
Thank you for taking the time to contact us.
Best Regards,
Stephanie Haina

Comments: I would like to know why in your 2008 awards Mastercraft, who has the same engines as Malibu , Supra and Moomba received a higher rating. They are made by the same compnay have almost exactly the same power and go in the same sized boats. sounds like smoke and mirrors if you ask me. I want to know how you came to the conclusion that one is better than the other, when they are the same.?
