Very nice pictures. I love how they light up the Cobalt symbol on the tower. Looks like the kids enjoy tubing. Our family are big tubers as well. We have a good watersports thread going with tubing. You should put some in there for us. Looks like that's a popular beach on the big pond. At least the waters warm. Lol good to see another Michigan boater here. You have company on here.

Nice shots Tara! And BB meant to say he's a big Goober, not tuber..

BB I'm still laughing at some of those pics you posted! Especially the creepy Clown in the boat! But what in the world, and where did you find the one with all the naked ladies and the gore? I'm a little worried about you.. I think you need a Happy Meal or something

Tara, you have to keep up on this forum because we tend to.. um.. wander around with topics? BB and A7 are referencing the picture of my McBoat, in case you are lost. I currently have an "M" on my swim deck from the prior owner. It'll be gone soon..

...yes, love the Drone footage tarach...z. One of those is on my short list for next year. The price is reasonable on Amazon for HD 4k footage and the "follow me" mode is just so cool.

We have a drain plug light installed as well but have not had a chance to use it. Man that lights up the water well.

Thanks for the great picture post . Made my morning Tarach....z!

The light is awesome and for 250.00 and no drilling into hull is a steal. The drone was flown from the beach not in the boat. Out in holland state park.

Forgot to mention the LED upgrade for the engine compartment. The stock halogen bulb on the 262/63 series (and some others most likely) is the Sylvania model number 1004.

The big thing with these bulbs is that they have "two" contacts on the bottom vs just one. 'Took me a few times to get it right.

Here are the upgraded LED bulbs which will go in when our 263 comes out of hibernation in the spring.

I ordered something identical for my 2007 220, but the 2 contacts were shorter than the factory bulbs and would not contact. Did you experience something similar? Anyone else have similar experience? Anyway to build up the contacts? If you could recommend a supplier that you bought these from, that would be awesome!

Hey DD69. Missed your first post back in July. Welcome to the CobaltChat forum. So glad you found us!

I did not have the challenge you have in regards to the two contacts.

Maybe BBp will chime in on the 220 model.

Any pics of your 220 Cobalt and engine compartment?

Again, welcome aboard mate!

Na I just buy from ebay cheap China crap. I don't get the good stuff like big gib gets 😂😂
It happens. I'm sure you could build up the contacts with soldier? Or maybe the socket just isn't pushing up good enough. Oh you do know you can only put a led light in 1 way correct. Just throwing that out there.
