Comments welcome. Joe -- (pictures available upon request, it sure looks pretty) Malibus are know for leaking out of the HDS system. It's the box you are referring to. Some boats will never have a problem while other boats leak badly (like yours). However, M should step up and fix the problem. They are not going to replace the entire boat however, nor would I expect them to. That's like saying my car has a brake problem so I want the manufacture to give me a new one. M is aware of the problems and truthfully I don't know why they don't just loose the HDS box. It is suppose to reduce the shaft vibrations, but in reality, every other manufacture does just fine without it. It would certainly cause fewer headaches for owners like you. Yes is is a repairable condition. Yes it happens with some frequency. Yes, some minor fiberglass work should fix the problem for good. Yes, you should be happy with the boat again after the repair. However, if M repair isn't good enough for you and you insist on selling the boat and taking a bath - let me know, I'd be more than happy to sell my MC and pick up a M for a great price. Maybe we can just swap boats - its a 93 Mastercraft Prostar 190. You can e-mail me at (remove nospam). Seriously, I'm sorry that you have had this problem. No one likes having issues with their new boat. But I have to say you need take a step back and allow M to do their job. I agree with Guy - I think most people are going to understand M position and dismiss you as some nit picking owner making outrageous demands (demanding a new boat over a minor issue). Now if M doesn't step up to the plate and get the job fixed in a reasonable amount of time or to your satisfaction, then you have reason to rant and rave. Until then, let it ride and see how things work out. |
