About Cal State Wake
The Heart of the Inland Oasis
Built by families, for families. Discover the story behind Southern California's premier towboat destination.
Our Origins
A Legacy on the Water
Cal State Wake wasn't born in a boardroom; it was born on the water. Our story began with a simple passion for the unique thrill of wakeboarding and the peace that comes from a day spent at the lake.
As a family-owned and operated dealership, we recognized a gap in the Southern California market: boaters didn't just need a place to buy a vessel; they needed a partner who understood the lifestyle. We set out to create a dealership that felt like a clubhouse — a place where expertise meets a handshake, and where every customer is treated like a member of our own crew.
The Cal State Culture:
Excellence
with a Personal Touch
At Cal State Wake, our culture is defined by The Three Cs:
Consistency
Led by industry veteran Brady Hale, our service and sales teams bring over 60 years of combined experience. You'll see the same friendly faces every time you walk through our doors.
Connection
We don't just sell boats; we build the foundation for your family's best memories. We believe that a boat is a vehicle for strengthening bonds, teaching kids resilience, and finding joy in the great outdoors.
Competence
We are enthusiasts first. We test the tech, ride the waves, and know the Centurion and Supreme lineups inside and out. When we give you advice, it comes from real-world experience, not a sales manual.
Rooted in Castaic:
Our Community
Involvement
We are more than a business in Castaic — we are a part of the local fabric. Our commitment to the Southern California boating community goes beyond the showroom floor:
Water Safety & Education
We believe the best boater is an educated one. We regularly host clinics and educational events to help new owners feel confident behind the wheel and on the rope.
Local Partnerships
From supporting local lake initiatives to participating in Southern California boat shows, we strive to be a positive force for the inland lifestyle.
Wake Responsibility
As partners with the brands we carry, we advocate for "Wake Responsibility" — promoting safe and respectful boating practices to ensure our local waterways remain enjoyable for everyone for generations to come.
Our Crew
"When you join the Cal State Wake family, you're not just buying a boat. You're gaining a support system that cares as much about your Saturday on the water as you do."
— The Hale Family
