Re: From 190 to 226, a true love story lol

So are you turning too many rpms with the f7? I had a 8.1gi and was not overly thrilled. It lacked the midrange. I would have went from a f8 to f7. The big diff from a gi to gxi is the extra rpm range you get and can go with a F6. Plus the cam and other differences. The 50 extra hp is definitely not...

Re: My Brand New CS23 and Intro

Does your boat have the ski tow ring on the transom? Use that. I have always been told by several manufacturers reps, the ski tow ring is for water skiing only. A tube creates way too much force and will rip that ring out of the boat. . Pretty universal warning in most of the Cobalt manuals these d...

News to me on the ski tow eye. That's all I've ever used of equipped with one. I guess you are supposed to use the 2 transom hold downs then?

Thats what i was afraid of. any harm in continuing to run as is?

Re: My Brand New CS23 and Intro

We have always towed a tube from the tower. We were also concerned at first whether the tower was sturdy enough for tubing. So we asked the dealer and the Cobalt factory whether we were doing it wrong. The answer came back that the tower was designed for tube towing. Did they fib to us? Not a chanc...
