No, not those. they are polished aluminum or chrome with a ring of red colored light around the part you push in.

Re: Unhappy with my 2023 R30 Battery switches...
I won't be near my boat for about 2 weeks. When I do get there I will take some pics to show.

Unhappy with my 2023 R30 Battery switches...
As the title states I have a 2023 R30 that we absolutely love but I am very unhappy with the push button battery switches. I was talking to my dealer the other day and expressing my displeasure and he mentioned the newer Cobalts have gone back to a more conventional switch and are no longer push ...

R30 Battery switches…
I own a 2023 R30 with the newer push type battery switches with the red ring to show if on type switches. I have left them on unintentionally and that caused a dead battery situation. Has anyone replaced these switches with something more tactile? This is my one complaint on an overall great boat ...

Re: R30 twin 350 vs 380.
We have a new R30 with the twin VP 350s and absolutely love our boat. I personally think that the VP 350s are the sweet spot for motors on this boat. Something else to consider is the winterization aspect of the Volvo vs Merc. This allows us the option of a late or early season ride on the water ...

That all comes from my growing up in Hawaii. That’s a little Pidgin English which means

First impressions of our new R30…
Well, the wait was too long and seemed to take forever. Part of that was due to family requirements that did not allow us to get to the boat while it languished at the dealer for 3 weeks waiting for us to get back from a family trip for a grandson’s high school graduation. But enough of that stuff ...

Re: Cobalt factory tour…
Well, first of all humble apologies for not getting back to the group before this but life does go on. Second, Cobalt does not allow any pictures to be taken inside their plant and they are hard over on this rule. Third, I didn’t get the questions before I went on the tour so sorry but no answers ...

Cobalt factory tour…
On Thursday my wife and I will be headed to Neodesha, KS very early in the morning to meet up with our factory Rep and view our R30 on the assembly line as it nears completion. *It won’t be long now until we finally take delivery of our new boat. Does anybody have any questions I can ask for them ...

Re: Need To Buy A Trailer For A 2023 R6 Sterndrive
I have a R6 sterndrive on order and looking to buy a Venture Trailer. Can anyone recommend the best set up? Trying to decide between the VATB-7225 and the VATB-8025. I'll only be using it for storage in the winter and launching in the spring and fall. Maybe occasional small trips within a few ...

Re: R30 with VP 350s…
Hope to see you at LOTO, my R30 and I are at the 32.5 MM Greenview side. Good luck! The R30 is a perfect boat for
LOTO.
Hey Big Gus
Howdy right back at Ya man. I’m really looking forward to getting my new boat in the not too distant future. I also had a 1965 Vette 396/425 fastback that was ...

Re: Color scheme of my new R30…
I was blown away when I perused the Cobalt website and saw that color when I chose it on their display model.

Color scheme of my new R30…
This is the exact scheme that I ordered on my new R30. The only difference is the interior color.
