Malibu Kayaks

I've been wondering about them since meeting a couple of the Malibu guys at ICAST last year.

well

Malibu is officially no more.
Pro-Staff are without support
Stores are without boats
and, from what I hear, one of the owners took everything and ran...

Where did you see this?

I have heard this too....the same thing...
Heard it from the guys down at ACK...

Guess that narrows the "which kayak should I buy?" list...
...WAS split between Malibu and Hobie...guess I need to save a few more nickels now...

Say what, now? 

They are answering the phone.

I talked with a relevant party.  Some things have been confirmed.  Others haven't.  Some things are concrete, some things are in flux.  If you're thinking about placing an order for a custom color/mold, it may be best to hold off.  At least for the time being...

If you have an issue with your current Malibu, you can still likely engage in some customer service dialogue.

Is there any update to this? Sorry to revive an old thread, but curious if anyone else has info? I have a malibu extreme, and recently contacted Rob there regarding a bit of hull repair and I got a few responses from him.

Yeah, they're back in action, and have with them a new website, PR campaign, and crew.  Get in touch and tell them of your problem.  report back and tell us how it went.
