Response
Built by Malibu
The direct-drive slalom ski boat: engine amidships, shaft straight down, and a hull tuned to leave the flattest possible wake at ski speed.
Malibu build inboard tow boats in Loudon, Tennessee and are MasterCraft's main rival. Their surf system and ballast control are the brand's main selling point, and the hulls are built around wake shape rather than around general-purpose boating.
What building a Response actually takes
Medians from the build logs kept on this site, not the designer’s estimate. Nobody has logged this boat here yet, so they are empty until the first builder does.
Those medians firm up as more people log this boat.
