Cobalt Boats Forum

I still need to install ours. It's sitting in a box in the closet. It's always easier to drill into someone else's boat. You do mine Ill do yours.

6.2 and CC is kind of a waste. Sorry just saying.

How dare you.

That would put him closer to 700 - 725 on the tongue. Remember the Ford tongue weight limit is 500lbs without weight distribution. That's a lot of weight to pivot behind the back axle, its only a 145in wheelbase, so would end up with a pretty light front end. I think that tongue weight rating for t...

You know there will be no gain from CC on a small block other than sound? Jesus I leave this place for a few months and come back to this? Since when has CC been about the 5hp gain and not about the ability to wake up an entire marina of houseboats when you start up the boat at the ramp at 8am? I’m...

Bob... We're all still trying to understand the rules of no sink no alcohol? Why in the Thunder would that be a law? (Sorry t5billion. No harm meant) Look lets applaud Bob for being solution oriented. He has overcome this silly law with nothing more than a pillow and a platform mounted grill. And w...

There is a decent amount of rake on my truck. You can see the rake is gone with the boat attached, and the pic was taken with no one in the truck. Yea - the F150's have about 1.5 - 2in of Rake built in. 525lbs on ours levels it out. I know the overload springs are stiffer - once you hit those its n...

Personally, I wouldn’t tow far with an Expedition. My personal weights are different that Mdadgers. 70 gallons of fuel. 20 gallons of fresh and dark storage. Accessories, coolers, stuff.. 1,800lbs of trailer.. Four passengers and one cute dog.. My set up will drop my F-350 a couple inches. The IRS ...

If he does I can't understand why they would not be able to clean the pool while they were in there....would eliminate the need for a vacuum all together.

Hmm assume it would be more than that, have you weighed the tongue on the A25 trailer? what's it scale? I have - it's about 620 lbs. Total weight is about 6300 lbs (~5200 for A25 and 1100 for the aluminum trailer). - Mark Wow -that's a bit lighter than I would have guessed. I assume T would be be c...

I don't know what to make of this thread. Just trying to pass on information/impressions of the new R6 for those who haven't had a chance to go through the boat. As to drinking regulations, if memory serves, in Canada we need to have a head and a sink to have open liquor on a boat. Inland lake enfo...

The 3.5 EcoBoost will pull it no problem. The rear suspension will not enjoy the tongue weight of the R7 however. I'm somewhat guessing but I would also assume the R7 hooked up would put it real close to being over GVWR by the time T had it loaded up and ready to go. Great looking SUV, just not the...

Try it once so you can report if it handled the R7 Buddy just bought a 2020 expedition limited with the trailer package last week.
