There are banks that specialize in high risk lending, especially in the Silicon Valley area. That likely explains the >13% interest. And quite honestly, if they were financed in 21-22, even early 23, it’s possible that everyone thought it was still gangbusters…. Though I really have concerns about underwriters that didn’t see the writing on the wall regarding economic slowdown.

Taco Marine semi rigid rub rail 1.5" I believe is the closest match. The center piece does stick out a little more than the factory one. I have been looking around for rub rail that matches closer to factory for a while now.
Last year I went with Domed numbers but just used the "newer" font. The one with all lower case... looks great.

I would guess/ imagine they used more local banks in California to finance those CA dealerships acquisitions? Possible local banks near the other locations? Maybe even more loans other than M&T possibly?
Just doesn't make sense how the staggering loan increase got approved....banks have disclosure rules on companies! Well they typically do....

The reduction in that boat is much different than boats from 10 years ago. Meeting you need to prop up so that you’re not churning hundreds of gallons of water which makes the hard. I learned the hard way when I bought a Vtx in roughly 2018 when the transmission changed.
I think moderator @ahopkins22LSV may have experimented with some prop work when he had his Vtx
I actually didn’t. I used the standard props on both our 19&20. I forget the model numbers but I could look up the build sheets. The 2020 performed better but I also had the M5 over the 6.0 409.

Any dealer non dealer can service a malibu. They all use the same basic parts for the most part, especially the older ones. It's just warranty that sucks. Experienced this when wizard lake marine lost Malibu
