2010 MALIBU BOATS

 

Affirming their strong commitment to value and performance, the 2010 Malibu line-up further validates its segment leading position by earning its 8^th straight Boat of the Year Award.  Top to bottom, side to side the new 2010 Malibu models embody the past, present and a healthy infusion of the future.  It has been said if you want to see where the others will be in five years look at a Malibu today.  More than ever families are evaluating their choices and looking for responsive customer care, versatile performance and the ultimate in product value.  And no company offers greater care or more advanced technology and performance than Malibu Boats. We are very excited about all the new boats, the refinements and the exclusive features we have introduced the last couple of years.  While others have cut their resources and their commitment to product development in these challenging times we have accelerated into a new realm of dominance.  We have positioned ourselves for present and future success.

 

For 2010 we introduce the industry’s hottest and most advanced tower design.  The all-new Illusion G3 features gas-spring assisted shocks for weightless fold down.  It is rare indeed to find flawless performance, eye-catching aesthetics and unparalleled strength in one complete tower package. Malibu takes it a step further for 2010 and includes standard Titan Swivel/Slide-off Racks with combination wakeboard and surf forks.  We have also equipped every Malibu boat with a standard fiberglass swim platform.

I thought I would share with you all todays latest news from Sea Ray ------------ Pretty Impressive stuff for recession year economy

 

TO: North American Sea Ray Dealers

SUBJECT: 2010MY Product Highlights
After one of the most challenging years in recent memory, Sea Ray has maintained our unwavering focus on product, dealer health and customer value. We’re poised to make 2010 a year that breaks away from the economic quagmire and sets the course for market share gains. When all other builders have shut-down, filed for bankruptcy protection or slashed R&D, quality control and marketing resources, Sea Ray is introducing seven new models to the market – the 260 Sundeck®, 280 Sundeck®, 260 Sundancer®, 280 Sundancer®, 310 Sundancer®, 450 Sundancer®, and 540 Sundancer®. In fact, our model line-up in 2010 will be the freshest we’ve offered in over two decades. Sea Ray’s quality improvements, which resulted in Sea Ray winning two out of the three J.D. Power Awards for Quality, are continuing with renewed energy, and we’re looking for a J.D. Power “clean-sweep” in 2010. We’re pouring on the gas with our global retail programs, Aquapalooza 2009, our Costco affiliation and web-site development.

       I thought it would be nice to share some ice cream boat photos, named by my wife the  "Yummy Yacht", with all of you that visit the website. Yesterday the Nelson Cold Plate freezer was installed on the boat.  This is a special freezer that stays cold all day and then plugs in while docked at night to refreeze the cold plates inside. As it stands with the helath department we will be permitted to sell pre-packaged food items only for now but we have future plans for hotdogs and maybe some other items.

       The signs for the sides of the boat were installed today and the Yummy Yacht should be operating next weekend.   Who knows, maybe the  Yummy Yacht will even get its own webpage soon?  Any of you that have some menu item suggestions other than beer please feel free to email us your suggestions through the contact page.

 Thank you to our entire service team for what amounts to a monumental acheivement.  Deep Creek Marina got out of storage and in service with a thorough delivery inspection all of its storage customers that gave the required two weeks notice as well as many "wish list" boats in time for Memorial Day weekend.   All this done even with a 20% increase in storage customers over the previous year.  Thank you to many of you that hung in there with us as we built the facilities to accomodate the future business of Deep Creek Marina.  While I would never say we are perfect I am so proud of this group of people and the incredible hard work and long hours it took to get everyone to the water on time for this year's beautiful and hot Memorial weekend.

 

Fill up with confidence all summer long at Deep Creek Marina

I posted the following recently and I know that many of you don't have any idea why you should pay much attention to anything other than who sells the cheapest gas.    I found the following link
on boatest.com and I think it is a worthwhile read to help put the rest of our Blog in context.    There is much more to it than that but it does help to understand a little better and  any of you that would like more information on this subject just let me know.  It always helps to have an objective third party explain why something you are selling is so important.   FYI if you have ethanol gas in your tank already, our gas will actually help get you get it out.  Exception being that at some point you actually have to drain the tank.  About that point your engine is ruined.

 

Deep Creek Marina uses a superior MTBE

(methyl tertiary-butyl ether) gasoline

instead of the traditional ethanol blended

gasoline. This fuel burns more efficiently

and is much less corrosive on engine parts.

The fuel is also treated with BG #202

Supercharge and BG Fuel Drier #280. This

fuel additive package keeps fuel free of

moisture that can cause damage to boat

engines. This helps secure the reliability of

a manufacturer’s warranty.

The fuel tanks at Deep Creek Marina are

tested once a month by BG professionals

to ensure their additive mixtures are at the

proper ratios for the best performance in

your boat engine.

Problem: Residues from

commercially available gasoline will

accumulate in intake manifolds, on

valves and in ports of modern

engines. These deposits will interrupt

the critical fuel/air ratio that is vital

to efficient operation of the engine.

This can cause severe driveability

problems such as rough idle, loss of

power, reduced fuel mileage and

increased exhaust emissions.

Solution: BG Supercharge® II is a gasoline

supplement that will keep the entire fuel system

clean and free of deposits. It contains special

stabilizers which prevent fuel oxidation, gum and

varnish formation, thus providing excellent fuel

storage stability.

Problem: Modern automotive and

watercraft fuels are susceptible to

contamination and moisture accumulation

formed duringstorage. This is especially true of

fuels stored for weeks at a time or

longer. Untreated, this moisture can

contribute to corrosion of the fuel

system, erratic engine operation,

and the growth of microorganisms,

which can plug fuel filters.

Solution: BG Fuel System Drier for gasoline

engines contains a safe and effective chemistry that

absorbs moisture and allows it to be harmlessly burned by your engine.

The hardest part of boating is now fun



Our automatic boat cover works on any kind of dock, whether you purchased it from us or elsewhere.  It withstands up to 140 MPH winds, works with lifts, aluminum, steel, wood, and plastic docks. If you don't have one of these, you will want one.  Think of not having to worry about whether you covered the boat properly, did the support poles fall down, how much is it raining at the lake today, this week, this month?  Protect the inside of your boat from sun and moisture exposure. This is the ticket, period. If you do not have your baby under one of these it probably isn't your baby.
