Re: Advice on buying a 262 (or other 24-27')

Great to see Kansans with 2 series! Love that 262!!! I’m enjoying my 276 at Stockton Lake. There’s a nice group of Cobalters here!

276 bow seat gas shocks

I need to replace the gas shock on the bow seat backrest. I’d love to find a way to lift and hold the backrest in higher position to make using all of the storage a little easier. Has anyone found a shock that will do that?

Thanks in advance!

Re: Extended Swim Platforms

I know what you’re looking for…some of the factory platforms look like they sit pretty flush to the water line. Depending on the year and model of your boat, Cobalt might still have a platform available, but from what I have learned, I wouldn’t expect that. I have a 206 with the swimplatforms.com ...

262 vs 262 or call it Gen 1 vs Gen 2

I have a great 206 but it just doesn’t quite meet my family’s need for more passengers. I’ve been doing my research and I’m really excited to shop for a 262. I’m confident that 262 or 272 will meet our family’s needs. It’s easy to look through the Cobalt resources/old brochures to study the specs ...

Will you be doing any water sports with her?

Mostly pulling a tube at first but we’re planning to see if the kids like waterskiing. We need some sunshine to get the water temp up!

First boat!

Hey all!

I’ve been lurking since just before I bought my first boat - and first Cobalt - in October. I picked up a 2001 206 with the Volvo 5.7 GXI after reading everything that I could find on this forum that helped me decide to buy her. I took her out a couple of times last fall which was just ...
