Malibu Echelon Wake Boat Restoration

In the before pictures we have already removed the original decals and striping, removed old upholstery and carpeting, removed old stereo equipment, and prepped the boat for the new colors, which were chosen by the boat's owner.  The family liked the new style of Malibu boats and they designed a new boat via Malibu Boat's web site (see picture to the left), a picture which they brought into LandCraft... We did our magic and created the boat they dreamed of for less than 1/3 the cost of a new wakeboard boat!

In the after pictures you will see the process of color refinishing take place, and watch as we transform the boat to fit a beautiful color palette, including custom designed decal applications, new carpet and upholstery featuring custom embroidered logos of the boat brand.  And what would a good wakeboard boat be without the sounds and lights?  We powder coated the boat owner's old tower, and added the bright halogen lights with marine grade tower speakers.

Some Extra Information About Malibu Boats

From the humble beginnings where Malibu built 100 custom ski boats in a small shop to their standing as the world’s number one manufacturer of water sports boats Malibu has become an exemplary American boat company. Malibu has won more Product Excellence Awards from industry experts than all other competitors combined including an amazing 13 Boat of the Year Awards. By 1995 Malibu was climbing the sales charts and became the second largest manufacturer of ski boats in the world. In 1997 General Motors enlisted Malibu to build the Corvette Limited Edition Ski Boat an engineering marvel that set new standards in ski boat design. By 2001, Malibu boats was at the top of the world in both awards and boat sales enlisting new production techniques and establishing new standards in customer service that has propelled us to where we are today, the new standard in the water sports industry.


 

Ski Nautique Ski Boat Restoration

 

In the before pictures you will see the original brochure pictures of the 1990 Ski Nautique, as well as the before pictures we captured as we removed old decals and striping, removed old upholstery and carpet, and prepped the boat for it's new color, which was decided by the boat's owner.  At the time of restoration, the owner opted to keep the boats trailer in its original color, however, LandCraft Marine does offer boat trailer refinishing to match the color(s) of the boat.

In the after pictures you will see the process of color refinishing take place, and watch as we transform the boat to fit a beautiful color palette, including decal applications, new upholstery and carpet, with upholstery featuring custom embroidered logos of the boat brand, and we also refinished the oak wood platform.  Our client loved what we created with his ideas and specifications.

Some Extra Information About Ski Nautique/Correct Craft

For over 80 years, Correct Craft Inc. has dedicated itself to building boats of unsurpassed quality and performance. As a result, the name "Nautique" is synonymous with core competitive waterskiing and wakeboarding.

The Correct Craft Legacy, 1925-2008...

Correct Craft was the largest supplier of boats to the U.S. Navy in World War II. In 1960 the company purchased the first fiberglass inboard from Leo Bentz, which eventually became today's Ski Nautique. In 1990 the Ski Nautique deck was changed and featured a sloping transom and the widest beam of any tournament inboard in history. Correct Craft has been the premier name in competitive water skiing; Today, their Ski Nautique remains the benchmark by which other inboard tow boats are measured.
