Malibu Blanket Winner Turns Giver

Malibu Boats (@MalibuBoats) blanket winner, Michael Berzins, recently presented his friend Doug, recovering a snowboard accident, with the one-of-a-kind throw. Michael posted this photo and these words on the Malibu Boats Facebook Fan Page.

"Here's a picture of the blanket winner, Doug. Finally home from the hospital and on the mend. Thank you again for the blanket and the smile (and tears) that it brought."

This is the fan page comment that won Micheal the blanket and the opportunity to present it to his friend.

Michael Berzins (Malibu Facebook Fan)
I need that blanket to give to a buddy of mine (who also owns a Malibu) who recently hit a tree while snowboarding. He is still in ICU at St. Charles Hospital in Bend, OR. When he finally gets to come home he is gonna have a lot of sitting around (and healing) to do. That blanket would make the healing process a little less painful. You can verify this story on TheMalibuCrew's website.

You're a great friend Michael! Our best wishes are with you, Doug and your families. We are proud to call people like you a part of the Malibu Boats Family.
