It’s time for boat show season, and that means it’s time for Malibu! The 2018 boat show season begins in January, and experienced buyers know that it’s a great opportunity to save thousands on a new Malibu boat.
Be sure to visit the Malibu dealer at the boat show in your area and ask about special factory to dealer incentives—but remember, when the show ends, so do the savings!
But before you go the boat show, we’ve created the industry’s most in-depth and informational resource for boat buyers, and it’s absolutely free.
“7 Keys to Buying Your New Towboat” is a free e-book that reveals the most crucial questions to ask when shopping for a boat and why 8 out of 10 customers choose a Malibu or Axis after test driving against the competition.
Once you read “7 Keys to Buying Your New Towboat,” you’ll be ready to visit your Malibu dealer at the boat show! See below for the 2018 international boat show calendar.
