Olympic Ice Hockey Player Natalie Darwitz Dreams of a Malibu Boat

We just found this short article published by the St. Paul Pioneer Press about Natalie Darwitz. It's actually an interview. I'm sure you're asking yourself what does Natalie Darwitz, a repeat Olympic Women's Ice Hockey medalist and assistant coach at the University of Minnesota, have to do with Malibu Boats. Well if you would have asked us before reading this article I don't think we would have been able to answer that question either, but today...

Darwitz said this in her interview with the Pioneer Press, "I'd like to live on a lake and have a Malibu boat out front. That's my dream boat. I like to ski and wakeboard in the summer. "

We are officially Natalie Darwitz fans here at Malibu Boats. The rest of the interview was pretty good too. Natalie sounds like a lot of fun and obviously she is a great hockey player. We like you too, Natalie. Thank you for appreciating Malibu Boats.

Malibu Boat Owner Perspective - Pete Uyeyama

We ran into Pete Uyeyama several weeks ago at a boat test. He stopped by to check out the new 2009 Malibu boats and we got to chatting with him. Turns out he owns a Malibu boat, his second, and he feels very strongly about the way boating has affected his life and the lives of his children. Pete shared these thoughts with us and we captured them on camera.

Find out how Pete became interested in boating, what led him to buy his first boat and how he feels about the level of investment he has put into boating. Pete's stories are fun, entertaining and insightful.

Visit the Malibu Boats YouTube Channel, meet Pete Uyeyama and find out why he says, "...this [buying a boat] is an investment in my family."

Malibu Auto Wedge Boosts Performance and Saves Fuel

The Malibu Boats Patented Power Wedge now features Auto Wedge, which boosts performance and conserves fuel while pulling up or retrieving riders.

Auto Wedge, as it is appropriately named, automatically adjusts the Power Wedge to the neutral down position until the boat reaches the rider’s set-speed. This process allows the boat to get up to speed without the displacement of water the Power Wedge creates. This decreases the time it takes the boat to get on plane by 34%, reduces bow rise and improves fuel consumption by 30%. These results were recorded when Auto Wedge was independently tested by Medallion Instrumentation Systems and Indmar Marine Engines using the Advanced Wakeboard Preset.

To learn more about Auto Wedge visit the October issue of the Malibu Boats E-newsletter. Or take a look at this short Malibu Boats video demonstrating Auto Wedge operation.

Hands-down the Strongest Wakeboard Tower

This is a fun picture that was taken by the staff photographer for WakeBoarding and WaterSki Magazines, Bill Doster. Todd Ristorcelli, Editor for WaterSki Magazine, tested the Illusion X wakeboard tower for strength at the WaterSki Magazine tests held at Lake Tulloch, CA last month. A six something, 200 and something pound guy doing a handstand on top of the tower. I'd say Malibu Boats passed the tower test! Thanks for the demonstration Todd. Hands-down the strongest wakeboard tower on the market, right Todd?
