LOUDON, Tenn., Aug. 23, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Malibu Boats™, the global leader in watersports towboat sales, has introduced the newest member of its tower family, the Malibu Gx Tower™.
The Gx (pronounced “G ten”) replaces the G4 tower with a giant leap forward in technology and convenience: Fully powered raising and lowering. No matter whether your new Gx is bare or stacked with board racks, speakers, and a bimini, raising and lowering is as easy as turning the dial and waiting nine seconds. The Gx is a back saver as well as a time saver that accomplishes Malibu’s number one goal: improving your time on the water.
The sturdy and reliable G3.5 will continue to be Malibu’s standard tower with its gas-spring-assisted weightless raising and lowering, but the Gx will be available as a premium option throughout the majority of the Wakesetter® line for those who want the ultimate in convenience.
On top of this, Malibu is the only inboard boat company to make all its towers in house.
“Keeping production in our California plant maintains a level of quality to the standard of our boats, which continue to lead the pack year after year in sales volume. We built the Gx tough too. We tested it for 3,500 cycles over a period of three weeks to make sure it would stand the test of time,” said Malibu Boats VP of Sales and Marketing Eric Bondy.
Choose from six hoop color options, five billet color options, and add white or black Rev 10 speakers to fully customize your tower. The Gx also has fully integrated bimini and board rack options so you can keep your boat shaded and free of clutter.
Sleek and purpose-built from aircraft aluminum with no pinch points, the new Gx sets the benchmark for inboard towers and it’s only available on a 2019 Malibu.
