Production model

VLX

Built by Malibu

A smaller V-drive Wakesetter, same idea as the LSV on a shorter hull for owners with less water or a smaller tow vehicle.

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.
