I know it is not a supra but its my latest restoration that I will hopefully get to keep unless I get my hands on a newer supra then im getting rid of this one.

Before pics I picked this up for $4000

wow great deal! you know have a 20,000 boat. thats awasome

[SuperSaltAir]

I know the only thing is that if I added up all the hrs I worked on it and charged my normal rate what I get paid for doing AC work I would have been able to make enough $$ to just by a new one. But I love working on boats and I would not trade the quality time I got to spend with the boat for anything in the world. Plus its good advertising when I use to take my old restored salter and tie up I alway had people come up to me and talk to me about it and when I tell them i just do this for fun and my day job is fixing AC units they would always ask for my # and call me to get there units fixed.

Wow.... nice build! Why did someone part it out or was it a theft recovery or what ???

[SuperSaltAir]

Bank repo and I guess it stayed in storage to long

[jet]

I look for things to fix or change to make it better..when nothing was wrong with it in the 1st place. Its challenging and therapy for me. Im with you man. : ))

[Okie Boarder]

Nicely done...looks good.

[Ptownkid]

That boat looks so good that you should just sell it right away and find a supra!

[riderite]

Do you plan on putting a new tower on it?

[SuperSaltAir]

Thank you guys on the compliments, I really do want a supra if someone comes up and offers lets say 25k I would not even think about it twice the Malibu is gone and I will be looking for a supra.

Yes I am hoping to get a tower on it maybe I can save up enough $$ and do it over the winter. Also I have been riding the air chair more and more lately and my skill level is not to a point where I need a tower yet. I also really like the new supra towers I was thinking maybe I can get me one the Malibu that would be so sick. Or this one I like it as far as looks I just don't know about the quality.http://www.aerialwakeboarding.com/v/vspfiles/wakeboard-towers/aerial-wakeboarding-freeride-pa1.asp

This is my next project unless I can trade it for a supra maybe an Alegro that would be sweet

Where are you located? I might have a friend that is interested. What year is the boat and what engine does it have? Any integrated ballast?

[SuperSaltAir]

I am in Phx az its a 2000 Malibu escape lsv with a 320hp 350 in it it. I have the parts for the stereo and parts for the ballast system except the bags so those will be in if I sell the boat. It also has the the acme 1235 prop
