LOUDON, Tenn., June 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Malibu Boats is thrilled to announce the return of the highly-anticipated Just Ride Tour, powered by GM Marine. This annual, nationwide event series, hosted by Malibu Boats, spans across the US and Canada offering boating enthusiasts and families with an immersive, on-water experience with Malibu Boats models. This season, the 2025 Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD High Country will tow the Malibu Wakesetter 24 MXZ to over 45 stops through our dealer network, allowing boaters to experience the exceptional performance of Malibu Boats. Led by Malibu and Axis Pro Athletes, each tour stop offers 1 on 1 product demonstration, hands-on instruction from the pros, and a chance to ride and to experience the industry’s best wakes & waves — all powered by Malibu Monsoon Engines. For years, Malibu Boats and GM Marine have collaborated to develop the industry-leading Monsoon engine lineup, designed to create the best wakes and waves on the water. At the top of this lineup is the GM 6.2-liter supercharged V8 LT4 engine — a powerful variant that shares its foundation with the engine found in the Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, but is specifically adapted for marine use. The LT4 engine is marinized at Malibu’s factory in Loudon, Tennessee through a specialized in-house process, transforming it into the Malibu Monsoon LT4™ Supercharged Engine. Featured in the Just Ride Tour’s 24 MXZ, the LT4 delivers an incredible 607 horsepower and 606lb-ft of torque—more than enough to fuel flawless wakes and waves all summer long. "We are thrilled to power the Just Ride Tour with the industry-leading Monsoon engine lineup, showcasing the exceptional performance and innovation of GM Marine and Malibu Boats," said Anthony Brower, Director of GM Powered Solutions Sales and Engineering. "This collaboration underscores our commitment to excellence and allows us to connect with boating enthusiasts across North America, delivering unforgettable moments on the water." In addition to GM Marine’s presenting sponsorship, Malibu Boats is proudly supported by a hand-picked lineup of sponsors whose products enhance the Malibu and Axis experience both on and off the water including PTM Watersports, Wet Sounds, Follow Brand, Skips Boat Cleaner, and No Rivals. "The Just Ride Tour is more than a demo — it's our way of bringing the Malibu lifestyle to communities across North America," said Rob Corum, Malibu Boats Marketing Manager. "With the awesome power of GM Marine, the insight of our pro athletes, and the support from our groundbreaking partners, there’s no doubt 2025 will be our biggest and best tour yet."
