LOUDON, Tenn., Feb. 19, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Malibu Boats announced today that Malibu Boats and Axis Wake earned recognition through the Marine Industry Customer Satisfaction Index (CSI) Program, based on feedback from new boat owners during their first year of ownership. This recognition reflects Malibu and Axis' performance in product quality and craftsmanship, driven by engineering excellence, vertical integration, and consistent manufacturing. It also recognizes the dealer network's role in delivering and supporting those products to a high standard beyond delivery.

The recognition was presented at the 2026 Miami International Boat Show. Administered by the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA) with independent survey collection by Rollick, the CSI Program measures satisfaction across key ownership touchpoints, including the purchase process, delivery experience, product quality, and service support.

"CSI recognition reflects the work our teams put into every part of the ownership experience," said Rachael Green, Senior Vice President of Operations & Engineering, Malibu & Axis. "Our goal is simple: build the best boats and back them with a world-class ownership experience. That starts with manufacturing excellence & thoughtful engineering built into every boat and carries through our dealer partners who deliver, set up, and service our boats to the same high standards they're built to. Together, this reflects what customers expect when quality is built right and supported at every step."
