Cobalt Boats Forum

Spring is close for sure, I have started making a list of things we need to do to the boat prior to Memorial Day. Here is a picture from late last season. Helps me to remember that spending all the time and money on the boat is worth it when you get the lake to yourself on a night with a sunset like ...

Your flag install looks great.

Does the quick links make much noise rattling against the pole? I’ve got carabiners attaching my flag to the pole and the noise drives me nuts. I keep thinking the noise is coming from my outdrive or the motor.


They do make a little noise. The first time I heard ...

Fun fact - Cobalt No Longer uses flag poles and mounts manufactured by Tig Tech...and let me tell you Tig Tech is not thrilled about it.

Our R5 did not come w/ a flag pole - first order of business was of course to add one, a Cobalt isn't a Cobalt w/o a Flag Pole, I will fight people on that. So I ...

Only if you are the one making the purchase. I want it to get to a good home.

I went down a pretty deep rabbit hole of trailer setup when we started towing heavier boats. Even bought a tongue weight scale. The wife loved it. What I found is a few inches can make a huge difference - that's what she said. I also found that at least in my experience Heritage puts more weight on ...

So glad you found us gb…..

A 26’ (really 27 ish with the platform) is under powered with a 350. That’s why it’s not selling IMHO.

If you don’t plan on doing much water sports and like to just cruise occasionally then this is the boat for you.

And welcome aboard mate.

Just to clarify ...

The boat will start because if the person is overboard you want the remaining people on board to start engine and be able to rescue person overboard.


I get it. It’s not like my Sea Doo where the lanyard is both a key and a safety cut off for when the operator falls off. It would be nice if ...

I'm definitely going to check these Commercial sewing/ Malibalt covers out. I tried the cheapskate route and bought a Seal Skin online. The advertising says it will fit my boat. Was very disappointed, looks like it was made to fit A boat, just not mine. Appears to be a general V bottom 22-23 foot ...

Not the best picture but gives you an idea.

Nauti, we use Current, too. Nice facility, nice guys, and 10 minute drive.



So far we have been happy /w them and the facility. For years Katie used a Mechanic down at Dale Hollow. Super convenient and they did really good work. They decided to retire - tired of crawling around in boats - and I ...

That’s a great point Bruce.

PA passed a law a few years back limiting wake surfing to direct drive inboard and v-drive propulsion boats.

Our 263 (like the 282 above) had the extra extended swim platform option which placed the outdrive so far under the boat that you couldn’t hit it if ...

Odyssey AGM is certainly a better battery, but I've been buying Interstate 27DC Marine/RV batteries from Costco simply because they're so much cheaper ($90). I have one that's 10 years old and one that's five years old right now, and I intend to replace the 10 year old one this year with a new one ...

Pictures!


I refuse to believe this actually happened until pictures are provided.

Think about it, you spent a large sum of money and time doing something very unique and cool to your boat. The first thing anyone would do is post up pictures showing off and bragging about their ...

Hey Jeff, at 77 it’s not at the top of my bucket list lol!

Hey dont sell yourself short, they say surfing is way less impactful than other options like tubing or sking.

Good to hear from you, we were out your way last weekend playing heritage hills golf course and we also are now using ...
