Cobalt Boats Forum

Update: We have been out three times since filling up with ethanal free gas and we have not had an issue since. Need a few more trips to mentally not think about this happening but the boat is running great. Talk about pain at the pump the 92 octane ethanal free here in CA is $9 a gallon! So when ...
