Malibu Kayaks Blem Sale comes to San Diego - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I may pitch this to fellow employees. They live near OEX Sunset Beach, but it's a good opportunity worth a roady.

They will ask what "blems" are and what fixes may need to be made in an "as-is" boat. Please clarify. Are these all seaworthy? Can they get fixes made at OEX Sunset?

There are no "fixes" necessary these are factory seconds that have minor imperfections. Most companies sell these as demo kayaks or rental kayaks, we do this with MK to put new kayaks into the hands of people who don't think they can afford a new kayak.

Thanks. Good to have an answer for folks that don't know the history OEX/Malibu. Two coworkers snagged these at first sales this summer in Paramout. They are SO happy.
