Turn-key and ready for summer. This is a rare opportunity to own a one-owner 1996 Malibu Sunsetter VLX that has been loved, professionally maintained, and carefully stored its entire life. Our family purchased this boat new, and it has provided countless memories on the water. We're only selling because it's time for another family to enjoy it as much as we have.
Whether you're into wakeboarding, tubing, skiing, cruising, or just spending the day at the sandbar, the Sunsetter VLX delivers the legendary Malibu ride, plenty of power, and versatility that has made these boats so sought after.
