Kathy Babich Testimonial

“Two years ago, I was a widow with little to no boating experience and a teenage son who wanted to wakeboard. As I compared boats to get in the game, quality and performance were largely assumed and expected. I needed a dealer who provided more than a great boat-I needed someone who could teach me […]

Daniel P. Perinovic Testimonial

“Having owned a MasterCraft, I was skeptical about changing brands.

Ben Thomas Testimonial

“Matt convinced us to try the Wakesetter VTX at the on-water boat show and we could not be happier. Further, the dealership, namely Matt has been wonderful to work with.

Nikas Family Testimonial

“I can’t thank you enough! What a great purchase our 2008 Malibu Wakesetter 23 LSV has been. The boat speaks for itself; IT ROCKS! These are not my words. This is the consistent response from everyone that rides in, behind or drives our boat and pretty much tells the story. The boat gets noticed and […]

Lars Flink Testimonial

“Prior to our purchase we did a significant amount of research, visited countless boat dealers, and test drove a number of boats. Making the choice to purchase a Malibu, and more importantly to choose a dealership was a decision we have never had a second thought about. The entire purchase process, from educating us about […]

Brian Groh Testimonial

“We’ve used the boat now for one full season. We’ve rediscovered the absolute joy of water sports. It’s a pleasure every time we head out on the water. It was a lot of money. But we can truly say that this was one of the best purchases we’ve ever made. This boat enables the lifestyle […]
