ricski39 Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Does anyone own, or know someone who owns a 99' Malibu Response? I would like to see some pictures of the underside near the prop to compare to what I've posted in another thread. I won't hold my breath since it's a 16 year old boat.

ricski39 Posted April 18, 2015 Author Share Posted April 18, 2015 @mrpreuss Thanks for the pictures. Unless it's just the glare on the boat, it looks like there's a lip behind the rudder that isn't there on mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller eleeski Posted April 18, 2015 Baller Share Posted April 18, 2015 @mrpreuss Is the rudder bent or offset? Or is that an artifact of the photo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrpreuss Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Unsure on the offset I never really looked at it. This boat is the tightest smoothest boat I have ever driven or been in. She drives like a brand new luxury car. If you want the specs on the recess or offset and or better pics let me know. I think the hull on our boats is the same as the 2015 LXR. My favorite slalom boat for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrpreuss Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 There is a recess up into the hull behind the rudder for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricski39 Posted April 20, 2015 Author Share Posted April 20, 2015 @mrpreuss Any specs you could give me on that recess would be very much appreciated. I'm convinced that's my issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller rockdog Posted April 21, 2015 Baller Share Posted April 21, 2015 @ricski39 my 196 has that little recess, if the Malibu has one and the fibrelass guy has filled that in, then that's a pretty ordinary effort on his part. Clearly it's there for a reason, my personal view is that would be precisely be your problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
