Whats it worth? Malibu wakesetter lsv

[Morehart]

We're looking at buying another lake house and the seller has this 2007 malibu wakesetter lsv. Looks clean and he doesn't want it if we buy the house. 1500hrs. New motor at 1000. Any help would be appreciated

With that many hours I’d say 25-30k range.

Awesome he's asking way less than that

 

[JFMFG]

I’d say 20k low side high side 25. What’s he want for it.

 

[MonkeyButt70]

Friend of mine sold one about 6 months ago same hours $18k

 

[JB in so cal]

Scan for hours. If hard pulling rpm ranges....

interior is probably ready to be replaced. Save enough so you can dump $10-12k into a new interior, worthy of the boat.

The lake house for my dad is the fun part,the boat just happened to be there during negotiations and inspection. Yup there's alot of upholstery. All looks good. No rips or tears. It's not perfect by any means, but mechanically it looks good. Bust out another thousands to make it right. I don't want to beat this guy up to bad. Just wanted to make sure we were In the ballpark to close this delio.

 

[Morehart]

It does have Malibu factory surf gates installed that the seller ran up a big dollar amount. New axels brakes and Bearings on the trailer. Laundry list of upgrades and maintenance

 

[Morehart]

Spoke to the owner. Should close the deal tomorrow. Thanks for the responses.

Imagine all the fun those 1,500 hours represent. Boating rocks.

I would say if you got it anywhere in the teens it's a steal, looked at a few Durning covid and they were fetching 35-40k.

 

[n2otoofast4u]

It sure looks like someone wrote the big check to have gates installed. Whether they are the factory option with all the MLS controls or the aftermarket with either manual control or auto deployment from a switch I cannot tell. Regardless, if it has gates that boat will do it all and is a great boat. Ski, board and surf!

Man, I am REALLY looking forward to next summer. Pop's place is going to be one killer party pad!

That’s a great boat! We have the same boat with surf gates. Add 750s to the rear lockers and the surf improves dramatically. We have 1400hrs and it’s been almost flawless. 07 was the peak at Malibu. Enjoy it

Nacimiento

Nacimiento

Find me a fixer upper house at Naci!

 

[Morehart]

Just confirmed with the seller lake test this Saturday with compression and leak down numbers. Any idea on a good annual service cost on a boat like this? There's multiple reputable service shops by the lake. I was thinking impeller, oil, anything else to address? Any input again is appreciated.

I'll keep a look out. What were you looking for? We are in heritage ranch. There's anything from 150k to 3 mill

Engine oil and filter
Drive oil
Distributor cap and rotor
Spark plugs (time to do compression/leak down)
Check belts and hoses
Fuel filter/water seperator
If its got a carb, a gasket/seals rebuild kit

A full go service here in Oregon is about $1200.

Cool your welcome to stop by anytime

Drip seal

Thanks. The boat should be water tight and fully functional. What's a drip seal?

Nice, I don't mind paying for a good service since it's a new to me boat.

 

[Morehart]

Seller agread to including all gear including boards tubes ropes etc.

It's going to be an awesome spring/ summer. I got alot to do at my pad, but pops is pretty dialed!!

Brain fart, I meant Trans and V-Drive fluids check not drive oil (was thinking I/O).

Also, do you know what motor is in that boat? There was an Indmar flex-plate issue affecting certain engine models. I had a 2006 and had the flex plate go out on me, had to pull the engine to replace it. Did the shaft log while we were in it.

From what I understand it's the monsoon gm 5.3

To be accurate, you don't want the boat to be perfectly water tight.
The drip seal is the seal where the propshaft goes through the hull. You test it with the boat idling in gear in the water. Depending on exactly what kind of sealing system youve got - you want to see a drop or two of water coming into the boat per minute around this seal.
My M/C has 800 hrs and ive never had to adjust it.

@Chestah Cheetah
any advise? Spoke to your brother, cant wait to see you guys again

Is there a inspection Plate in the floor to check this while under way? I see one in the floor?

 

[Morehart]

Also wonder what the insert in the floor is for toward the back. Possibly a table insert?

 

[n2otoofast4u]

It’s been awhile since I’ve owned that generation but if I remember correctly, pull the center cushion in the back and there’s an access panel under that to gain access to the Vdrive. It might be held in with allen or phillips headed cap screws.

The hole in floor should be for table. Will store either in rear hatch or under glove box.

My advice, at that figure - buy it! I know next to nothing about tow boats but I’d be happy to spend the day on that float at Naci!

Different year boat but it was an option for the year your looking at.

I found a replacement table for 06-20 but didn’t find the pole.

In my Tige there is, I carry a bag of chord with me in tool box, but as RDK mentioned, never had to redo it since i have owned it, old owner said he did it ever 3-4 years. I got some bags and a pump if you want to try them, not going to use them anymore.

 

[badluck]

Any input on maintenance would be appreciated.

I do plugs/rotor/cap/oil/filter/vdrive/trans/airfilter/impeller every yr and fuel every 2 yrs. But we do 100-120 hrs per yr. Mine burns about a quart of oil every 70hrs. It’s at about 1450 hrs and it’s done that for yrs. We also ski it and wakeboard a lot. It’s loaded while wakeboarding. For upholstery go to Gabes in Merced. He has all the patterns. He was the Malibu guy when Malibu was building boats in Merced. Typically 300 per cushion.
