Bill & Kim Shaw-2001 Response
Name: Bill & Kim Shaw
Model: 2001 Response
Tow Vehicle: Chevy Truck
City & State: Reno, NV
Comments: My wife and I moved to Reno in 1999. After buying a new house we had to wait until the summer of 2000 to order our 2001 Response. I realize that a closed bow boat is a dying breed. We enjoy water skiing the most, and since you can’t beat the wakes of the response we jumped in and had one built to our liking. Our local dealerships employees are always very helpful with all aspects of our boat. It is a great feeling to know that you have people that care about you and your boat. I even get help out at the annual winter boat show. The tower was just added last summer. And now we are enjoying wakeboarding as well. Malibu has built our family such a great performing boat that I don’t think we will ever need a new one. Well maybe that’s going a little too far.
Thanks again to Malibu, and our dealership in Reno for always making us feel like we are part of the family
Sincerely,
Bill & Kim Shaw
