I did indeed buy the 2016 Cobalt 220s as mentioned in a prior post. Thrilled!
Did a clean-up yesterday on it, only 50 hours but needed a little TLC on the inside (just a good cleaning). Going through a couple things.
1. Bilge Pump. I assume it works on a float? There is also a switch to turn it on on the dash. In just turning it on, it did not come on with that switch. I wasn't sure if it should, or if it still needs enough water to kick in? (thanks, I've been on boats for years, but first purchase. I try not to act like an expert when I am not) - yes, battery was on. Turned it on to check a number of items.
(EDIT - this seems to be fixed, rinsed it off really well, pulled the little lever tab up and down a few times - now working even at the dash)
2. Radio, I was worried the speakers had an issue with a crackle, but it turns out it just doesn't stay connected to bluetooth real well. Otherwise, it seems to be fine. Anyone have a similar issue with the kicker system? (just the basic 6 speaker with a couple head units). Seems to work well other than the bluetooth. (well, the radio worked, will try a usb cord today)
3. Speedo - it's pretty obvious when looking there is that "tube" on the lower part of the engine that has broken. It's easy to see.
4. Trim gauge. Trim on the boat works fine, it's just the gauge jumped all over on my sea test.
5. A few lights out, but nothing I hope is nothing too bad (one interior accent light, and the two white, docking lights in the front)
But, man, it cleaned up so well, you can see the quality. Can't wait to get it out today!
