Factory Tour

Recommended Posts

I posted this very paragraph at the end of my thread on Axis boats but I think that board gets much less attention.  Since I'm touring the Malibu facility I thought I'd copy and paste it here on the Malibu side to see if anyone could answer any of my factory tour questions.....thanks!

 

Spray date is Feb 27th and I along with another 'bucrew member are going up to Louton on Mar 2nd for a factory tour.  The instructions I received say "no pictures" but I've seen several pics on here of boats in the build process; are they leniant about that rule when it comes to taking pics of your own boat?  They also said the tour was only 1 hour or so but I've seen others mention spending most of the day there.  I was told there was "no lingering around" - what am I missing here?

Hey WaveMaker.  I too have been sent those rules as we are headed out to Loudon, TN later this month.

My take is that with every tour there is a set of rules that are sent out ahead of time and based on what I have seen in the past, folks do take pictures and folks do mention the representatives from Malibu allowing visitors to stick around and ask questions.  I don't think those rules are hard and fast and I bet that it will be a wait and see type of situation.

There will probably be some areas where you are not allowed to take pictures and I bet that let you know ahead of time.

Enjoy the tour!

If possible, request Kasey. He will make sure you have a great experience.  My tour was certainly longer than an hour.
