From talking with a few people Bakes is going to be just a parts and service center. They are still a certified Malibu and/or Indmar service center.
I agree with NuBu. Seattle Boat has never sold anything but runabouts and Sunseeker's(I can't imagine they sold that many of these). They really need to hire a service person and a salesmen that know wakeboats or they are in for a hurting. The other problem I see is that Malibu doesn't really make a good rough water, deep freeboard boat that will sell that great on Lake Washington. I have a feeling that Malibu just ended their run of dominating Lake Sammamish in tournament boat's.
What is good for Seattle boat is they have their main shop/showroom on Lake Union but also have a service center in Bellevue at Newport Shores.
