Why Winter Is the Best Time to Buy a Boat

When the temperatures drop, most people assume it’s time to store the wakeboard and tuck the boat away until spring. But the truth is, winter is actually the smartest time to buy a new boat—especially if you’re looking to score serious savings and get ahead of next season’s rush.

1. Year-End Sales Event = Massive Savings

As dealers prepare for next year’s inventory, the best deals of the year hit the market. Right now, you can take advantage of Texas Malibu’s Year-End Sales Event with up to $50,000 off new Malibu boats and up to $25,000 off new Axis boats.

Whether you’re dreaming of a new 23 LSV, an Axis T220, or a family surf setup for Lake Travis or Lake LBJ, these discounts won’t last long — and they won’t return once spring demand hits.

2. Beat the Spring Rush

Come March and April, every lake lover decides it’s time to buy, test, and rig their new boat. That means longer wait times for financing, rigging, accessories, and delivery.

Buying in the winter means you’ll have your dream setup ready the second warm weather hits — no waiting, no backorder delays, and no missing that first perfect lake weekend.

3. Personalized Attention & More Inventory Choices

Winter buyers get VIP treatment. With fewer crowds in the showroom, you get more one-on-one time with your sales rep and service team. You’ll also have access to the best selection of new and used inventory before the spring frenzy starts thinning out choices.

4. Customize Without the Rush

When you buy early, you have time to build and customize your perfect boat — from tower options and audio packages to color schemes and surf systems — without feeling rushed. By the time summer rolls around, your fully tailored Malibu or Axis is ready to roll off the trailer and into the water.

5. Trade-In Value Advantage

Winter is also an ideal time to trade in your current boat. Dealers are looking to refresh pre-owned inventory before the season starts, meaning your trade can bring in top dollar. Combine that with year-end manufacturer incentives, and you’re maximizing every dollar.

Don’t Wait for Spring — Start Saving Now

If you’ve been dreaming about a new Malibu or Axis, this is the time to act. Between exclusive factory incentives, huge savings, and the chance to customize your perfect boat before the season begins, winter truly is the best time to buy.

Stop by your local Texas Malibu dealership in Austin, New Braunfels, Marble Falls, or Dallas/Fort Worth to explore the lineup, take advantage of year-end savings, and make next summer unforgettable.
