time for a new boat - Malibu Response TXi - 437 hours

[greghayes]

If you are looking for a modern ZO pull with a 6L motor, and want to avoid the sticker shock of a new Nautique, MC or Malibu - check this one out. Behind the boat, most skiers (including me) who I've driven don't notice any difference between this one and the brand new models.

This was originally a promo out of Utah and has sat on a lift on fresh water private lakes in Southern California since I picked it up from the promo owner. Fluids changed every 50 hours, wiped down after every use and run year-round several times a month. It is super clean and runs like clockwork. Asking $39,750.

SIA posting is MIA. Did it sell?

Hey I remember that boat!!!

 

I bought the boat I currently own from Greg and this one showed up the day I was driving away with the old one. I remember thinking at the time that I hoped I would be ready to buy this one from him also once he was done with it in a few years. Uh...sorry @greghayes my pocketbook isn't quite ready for me to go that route right now.

 

Anyway, FWIW, Greg didn't sell me a lemon when I bought his used boat in 2012, so I assume he has kept this one in good condition as well. Good luck on the sale man.

I've skied this boat and it is a gem. Plus, Greg know how to take care of his things.

I'll jump in and answer for Greg since he's supposed to be working hard today so we can ski tomorrow. Yes the boat was sold about 5 weeks ago. His new boat is a 2018 TXi that he pre-ordered from So Cal promo guy Scott Larson. Another great boat.

@baja, thanks for that, guess I'll have to wait for his '18 then. Hope it is blue!

@JimOfTheNorth - here's the new one. @escmanaze - glad the Nautique is still going strong. I loved that boat. @PBD I think you'll like this one even better - it's a world class pull and is glued to the water for an easy drive. @baja - truth!

 

I also wasn't aware boats came in colors other than blue. ;)
