When you buy a Malibu boat, one of the most exciting steps in the purchasing process is customizing the boat to suit your specific personality, tastes, and desires.
Customizing a Malibu boat is not just a matter of choosing the hull and upholstery color. As the global leader in wakeboat design and manufacturing, when you customize your Malibu boat, you are given more freedom than competing brands, with the ability to choose between a huge variety of options designed to ensure that the boat we build is the exact one that you want and need.
Read on to learn more about what you can expect from the customization process and how to build the boat of your dreams on Malibu's Build a Boat tool.
Having chosen your model, the tool will ask you to choose your Gel Scheme. Here, you can select between Aggressive, Progressive, and Classic, with each scheme delivering a unique layout for your gel coat colors. Choose Aggressive for a cutting-edge layout, or Progressive for a more innovative design. If you prefer a more traditional look, the Classic scheme has you covered.

Finally, you can choose the Deck Base color. This is the gelcoat color for the topside, including the interior, the horizontal deck surfaces, parts of the stern, and the top edge of the hull sides. In other words, this is the color you will spend most of the time looking at, so make sure that it's one you love.
The Malibu towers are industry-leading onboard equipment and play a key role in the Malibu watersports experience. The G10+ tower, for example, introduces an industry standard for innovation and quality with its ability to raise or lower in nine seconds, half the time it takes for the competition.
Depending on the model of your boat and the tower option you pick, you will have the choice of several tower customizations. These may include up to two separate paint colors (main and accent), the number and location of board racks on the tower, and the number and type of speakers.
It also means that you can customize several boats, which may be helpful if you still find yourself choosing between more than one model. By being able to save your designs, you can instantly compare one model's design outcome to another.
Malibu allows customers to customize various aspects of the trailer, including having the choice of two-tone paint across the fenders and trailer body, high-end wheels, stainless steel fenders, runway lighting, and more.
Malibu Soft Grip flooring is a great option on the trailer's surfaces and can be customized with laser-engraved Malibu logos. If that's not to your taste, chrome chrome-plated stainless steel diamond plate is an optional upgrade. EliteShield is also optional, providing weather-resistant protection against abrasion, corrosion, and impacts.
Every trailer comes standard with 14" wheels that can be optionally upgraded to 18", color-matched to your boat. Optional Malibu XD series wheels are lightweight, strong, and race-tested.
Of course, customizing your Malibu boat doesn't end at the colors, tower and trailer. When you buy a new Malibu boat, you will have the option of ticking various options boxes. These will differ between models but include loads of exciting features that make Malibu stand out from the rest.
