2001 Malibu Sunsetter VLX powered by a 5.7L V8 325hp EFI Indmar Monsoon engine, V–drive and only 267 hours of FRESHWATER use.
Powered by the multi-port, fuel-injected Monsoon 325hp, the Sunsetter VLX is another big-time Malibu winner. If you can somehow overlook the superior craftsmanship and all Malibu’s topside amenities, you’ll discover that Malibu is pursuing water-sports excellence with this boat. It runs on the SV 23 Diamond Hull, the same hull that carried the Response to world records. If you find it comforting having a boat that is extremely fast, exceptionally classy, yet capable of outstanding wakeboarding and solid slalom performance, then the Sunsetter VLX is the obvious choice.
For 2001 this VLX model, at the time, had the new Diamond hull. It provided better top-end speed, handling, slalom wakes and with the Wedge, it enabled the intermediate to advanced rider to be totally satisfied. Most V-drives don’t have tracking fins because they aren’t about performance, Malibu’s have them because they want this boat to track well and not roll up on its side when turning.
This is a great boat. It performs well, has very low hours, only freshwater used and looks great!!
