OK... I swear to god at one time I was a pro slalom skier but I have been gone from boats for awhile lol!!!!!! This one is stumping me!
I have a 01 Malibu Response right now.... it has the speedo and tach and the malibu perfect pass... no hour meter!!! where do I locate the hours on this boat?

sorry for my ignorance in advance!

Maybe the only way is to have someone hook up a scan tool to read the engine control module. The ECM should have hour history.

Damn these new fangled computer ran water mobiles!!!
thanks... I will give it a try.

what would you say this boat is worth (rough estimate?)
2001 response LX open bow, tower, kicker sound system, shower, perfect pass, good condition (needs a buffing), no wedge, tandem trailer.

thanks

Are you certain there is no hour meter? I know silly question, but according to ur manual it says its there.

If it has the digital clock/ air and sea temp gauge it has a mode that will show hours when the boat is running.

Probably worth $14-17k depending on condition and location.

I'd say closer towards 14k or less. At 17k, you should be looking at V-drives.

That's a pretty solid 3 event boat. Some people are still interested in those. I just did a quick check of onlyinboards and that is what I came up with.
