Axis Wake Research Line Now Available At The Navigation Co.

12/08/2009

Stop in and check out the brand new creation from one of our familiar friends in Merced, California to target the significant population of wakeboarding enthusiasts that simply don't need or want to pay for all the extras. Some folks out there simply care that the boat they are using to wakeboard, # 1 is built to sufficient standards (hull thickness not paper thin), #2 makes a great wake, and #3 caters to what matters most to a wakeboarder, not to mention the styling is superb. Everyone would love to have sub woofers and tower speakers with digital switch panels and a Maliview screen, but these things aren't necessary in order to get a good consistent pull… Malibu boats are great, but too rich for the blood of some younger riders or those of us that want to get into a boat without breaking the bank. I personally took the pictures and examined the boat. I was skeptical how the Axis boat would be much different from the V-Ride. Would they just leave certain things out to make an affordable boat? I was pleasantly surprised to find that the boat was much more than just a bare-bones Malibu. The boat has a completely unique look, a solid boat with what looks to be a very trouble free make up of components. The legendary Malibu roomy, plush interior remains a constant with Axis, yet the seating arrangements make it very functional for boarding. Skybox seating creates a simple, but clever advantage over other interior setups, providing a great view of the action no matter what… Easily upgrade the boat later on with tower speakers, your own custom sound setup, or use the optional plug and play plumbing to add additional ballast without the aid of an external pump and 12V outlet hanging over the side of your boat all the time… Overall a very impressive boat at the perfect time. No longer will you have to sacrifice quality, craftsmanship, and performance when buying a price conscious wakeboard boat. The words we use to describe Axis are "SIMPLE, FUNCTIONAL, YET SOLID, WITH CUTTING EDGE DESIGN". The days of Moomba no longer make sense when you can now get a way better built and designed boat for the same kind of money! -Zach Go check out the boat in full at http://www.navcompany.com/newboats/1042
