Hey I just recently bought a floating wedge for my 2004 malibu response lxi and I am looking at making my own backplate for the bracket to bolt to through the boat. How thick is the stock backplate?

Indeed.  They have now figured out how to give you nothing so they can take all of the settlement for themselves.

I just got a postcard in the mail yesterday that says, "this Claim's proportionate share of the Net Settlement Fund calculates to less than $10.00....  Accordingly, the above-referenced Claim will not receive any distribution from the Net Settlement Fund."

No tort reform for us, though, since laws are mostly made by lawyers.

Not accurate on multiple fronts, but most notably,  Desantis signed major tort reform legislation last year. Of course, Floridians don’t realize how their rights were restricted thereby, but carry on.

@amartinDoes your Bimini adjust upward when you lower the tower?

you should be able to use the arm when the Bimini is in the upward position. (See the 1st pic in this thread) the Bimini is stowed but in the up position.

i have a tower mirror arm “new” in box I’d be willing to part with. I went to mount it and I’m not a fan of where it has to mount when you have 2 pairs of Rev10 on the GX tower.

i tow, and store the boat with tower down and with 2 pairs of rev10 the captain chair needs to be turned to the side to avoid speakers rubbing on chair, but by turning the chair the stowed position of the mirror with tower down would interfere with the chair or be in a bad position for actual use while under way

 

I plead ignorance on the Bimini moving when I lower the tower, as I have never lowered it and hope that I don't have to anytime soon!

Let me know what you want for the arm - might be worth a try.  I will send you a message with my contact info.

I took a quick look at Tommy’s inventory

leftover 2023's
131 Axis boats
213 Malibu boats

344 boats total.  Estimated average price of those boats $150k x 344 = $51.6 million in leftover inventory.

2024 inventory in stock:
42 Axis boats 
68 Malibu boats

110 boats total.   Estimated price of these boats $150k x110 = $16.5 million in inventory.

 

Found a still-brand-new 2022 24MXZ in there as well that someone should be able to pick up for a steal.

No, it doesn't directly have anything to do with Tommy's, I'd agree.  But is it a result of a bigger issue at hand internally?  Are they moving on because the sponsorship dollars are drying up?

Yeah, I’d say it’s indicative of a bigger issue at hand internally. Down to one team skier with no promo team coordinator?  This is a pretty big deal.
