Now that the Malibu Open is officially a part of the WWA World Series tour, Malibu has decided to step it up and deck out the official tow boat for the event in a custom wrap. In years past the boats pulling the event have been stickered up with sponsor decals, but nothing to the extent of a full graphical wrap.
They’ve chosen the VLX as the official boat for the wakeboard event, which is a surprise since the 23 LSV received a redesign for 2008. Typically Malibu selects the latest and greatest model as the tow boat for their namesake event, but this year, the 21 footer gets the nod.
The wrap is solid gray, with muted black accents, but it should look good on the water, and will get the point across. The real question is, could this foretell some special edition Malibu Open VLX in the near future. Both Supra and Mastercraft have “limited edition” models named after the events they pull, so it’s not too far fetched to think that Malibu could be prepping special commemorative models.
What do you think, would a special Malibu Open series boat complete with the above graphics be of interest to you?
