Malibu / Axis

Before
Malibu Boats Greece & Cyprus had no site of its own to list its stock or take enquiries.
Now
Now the team keeps its own stock list, publishes its own listings and answers enquiries directly, on a site the company owns, in English, Russian and Hebrew.

The brief

Malibu Boats Greece & Cyprus is Malibu's sole representative in Greece and Cyprus. The site had to carry both brands' 2027 range, let the team list new and pre-owned boats itself, and bring every enquiry straight to the team. Buyers usually ask on WhatsApp, so replies had to work there too.

What we built

  1. The 2027 range, both brands

    Malibu and Axis models, with series filters, key numbers and a finder by group size, each linked to the factory configurator.

    The 2027 range page on a desktop: the heading "The 2027 range", a line about every surf and wake boat for model year 2027 from Malibu and Axis, and the start of the "Which boat is for you?" finder with the Axis T220, Axis A225 and Malibu 23 LSV.

    The 2027 range page on a phone: the heading, a short intro, and the start of the "Which boat is for you?" finder with the choices "Surf and wakeboard" and "Water ski".

  2. Inventory run from a phone

    The team lists new and pre-owned boats, orders the photos by dragging, and changes a boat's status in a few taps.

    The inventory dashboard on a desktop, on demo data: four boats with their photos, reference numbers, condition and "On request" prices, a status menu on each (draft, available, reserved), filters for each status and a search field.

    The same inventory dashboard on a phone, on demo data: the status filters and the search field, a 2027 Malibu M242 at the top of the list with its status menu, and tabs for Boats, New listing and Enquiries along the bottom.

  3. Enquiries with one-tap replies

    Each model page and the contact page carry an enquiry form, where buyers choose email, phone or WhatsApp. Every enquiry lands in an inbox with one-tap replies by any of the three, and each model and listing shares as a preview card in WhatsApp.

    The enquiry inbox on a desktop, on demo data: the newest enquiry, from "Maria (demo)" about a 2027 Malibu M242, with her message, her preference for WhatsApp and the buttons Reply on WhatsApp, Call and Email, then a trade-in request below it.

    The enquiry form on a phone: the heading "Send us a message", a choice of enquiry type, fields for full name, email and phone (needed for a call or a WhatsApp reply), and "Best way to reach you" with the options Email, Phone and WhatsApp.

  4. Where to ride, on a chart

    The watersports centres in Cyprus and Greece that run Malibu and Axis boats: 12 centres in 5 places, on a chart of the Aegean and the Levantine Sea that follows the page as you scroll.

    The Where to ride page on a desktop: a chart of Greece, Crete and Cyprus with the riding spots marked and a dotted route between them, beside the list "12 centres, 5 places": Protaras, Larnaca and Limassol in Cyprus, Elounda and Vouliagmeni in Greece.

  5. Three languages, one of them mirrored

    English, Russian and Hebrew. The Hebrew site is mirrored for right-to-left reading, navigation and layout included.

    The same home page in Hebrew, laid out right to left: the logo and navigation start at the right, the language links and the enquiry link sit at the left, and the headline is set against the right edge.
