Looking at a used 7000lb Shorestation Boat Lift. The lift is in good shape and is 8 years old. Comes with 28ft canopy, just right for our boat. Dealer wants $16000. Debating idea of going used or just bite the bullet and go new. New lift with canopy runs around $27000. Looking for opinions.

Been having trouble with fuel gauge. Often it reads full when I know tank is not full. To remedy I've started using the fuel used and total fuel remaining gauges on the glass cockpit. To check accuracy I marked level on fuel tank added 15 gallons of gas. When fuel used gauge read 15 gallons I ...

We bought a 2021 R5 with a the Merc 350 hp engine back in August from the dealer you saw the R7 at. Had about 100 hours on it and been kept in a boat house during the season. Wasn't really looking at upgrading (from a Crownline E22) at the time but it popped up in late July and couldn't resist. It ...

Anyone using a 6000lb lift for their R5?

Trailer I picked up last fall has power king tow max tires with date code of 2020. Previous owner only used trailer to move back and forth for winter storage. No other trailering so tires look brand new. We trailer a lot so I'm thinking about upgrading tires. Any thoughts about this?

I picked up a R5 last summer. Dropped of with the dealer in October for winterization and storage. Needed some minor gelcoat repairs and minor prop work all that dealer agreed to pick up the cost on. Agreed on a May 1 pick up. Called the service manager 2 months ago to check and he said all set for ...

Yes it was through my dealer. He said it would be a couple of weeks.

Othans. Ordered one from my cobalt dealer.

Just ordered one for my 2021 R5. $1500.

Considering ordering a mooring cover from Cobalt for our R5. Pros and cons? Comparison to separate bow/cockpit covers?

Thanks!

Looking for pictures of a sunpad filler cushion for a R5.

Posted some questions and comments about 2021R5 we were looking at. Finally pulled the trigger on it a couple weeks ago. Taken her out a couple times and we love it. Thought I'd post a picture of it.

I was in the same boat. Had a crownline e22. A 2021 R5 with low hours and good options showed up at the local dealer in July. Gave me good trade in and was willing to deal on price. Got him to kick in warm storage and winterization. We like the e22 but the R5 is a major step up. It's our forever ...

Looking at a used 2021 R5 with 103 hours. Merc 6,2L 350hp engine. Good additional options. Boat is in excellent condition. Kept on lift in boat house. Warm winter storage. Took it for a test drive in fairly choppy water, 3 people 1/2 tank of gas. Rode great had it up to 50mph with some engine to ...
