First Cobalt.. 282

[AsLan7]

83! Wow...that is fast for it's size.

Thanx Matt. Very cool. And yes you're right...Cobalt is a perfect combination of power, practicality, performance, and price.

Enjoy!

We have had it 67mph (with just my Wife and I).

I don't like to leave things WOT for too long, just little bursts. I still have to play with trim settings.

F9 props make the fast cruise speed 3500 rpm at 52 mph which I like, but it will also plane down at 20mph (ish) for pulling tubes for the kids.

Love to see 70 but I'm not sure the duo props are efficient at that speed so Ill have to play around some more. (maybe with just me... 2 gallons of gas... and remove everything that isn't bolted down...HAHA)
It seems to hit a wall as its pulling hard so that may be all shes got.

70!
Wow Matt.
What pitch props are you currently spinning?

[cmattj]

Almost.. almost. (Current and tail wind and gut the interior Maybe Ha!) .. 70 is my unicorn..

The F9 I was told is equal to 28P ish?? im not sure the conversion as Im new to Volvo.

I remember BBP saying he feels a wall and I feel that too. Its just stops??

But im very happy so far .. I like the DP bite taking off and the cruise speed feels locked in with no slippage sensation i had with single 4blade bravos.

I found some pics of cmattj going 68 mph on a poker run!

Lmao

That video is so Bad!!!
Some guys on the crownline forum saw him last year with the same boat yet on LOTO.

[cmattj]

your killin me smalls.....

I had it under control until my dash "go pro" low battery light came on.. very distracting.. HAHA

[AsLan7]

I remember when that video came out and I watched it for the first time.
That driver is so negligent it's sickening

[ajcampen]

It was on a poker run...he apparently was a pro driver

[AsLan7]

Pro in his mind.

I'm sure auto correct kicked in and you meant to say pro diver.

That poor girl hits her face so hard.

[Driller]

I can't remember where I read it, but it said the guy in the back seat who does the face plant was a reporter who was only going along for the ride. I think it was his Go-Pro. The water was so rough a number of the Poker Run guys called it quits. The boat went air borne and did a 180 deg. turn in the air. I think this crash generated a few lawsuits. Maybe the pro, not so pro anymore. Unless you can be a pro without a boat, which I guess is possible if anyone is dense enough to let you drive theirs after watching the video.

Maybe fake news, who knows anymore.

[AsLan7]

That guy was negligent in how he was driving.

Again our whole family was sickened when we saw that video. Those poor people should have never gone through that with him. He put every one of them at an unnecessary risk of dying.

If he did not have an umbrella policy, I bet he has one now.
