Hey just signed up and thought I’d say hey. Just picked up a 1989 24ft condurre. New to the cobalt brand but not new to boating. Been on the water sense I was able to float. Had a 1973 slickcraft and now this one. Mainly boating on lake Geneva in Wisconsin if any are close by.

Hoping to get to know y’all and help me with tips and advice. Boats in good shape but will want to repair and update things as time goes

Here a few shots of the fs add when we bought it. Have t taken any more sense it’s in storage till spring

Hey Waterman5000. Welcome to the CobaltChat forum. So glad you found us!

That Cobalt with the 454 is a classic. Cool fireboy in there. Thanks for the pics! How did she run when you hooked the muffs up to her?

No he means suffering under the burden of over-taxation & over-regulation. But also wings.

Anyway - nice boat & welcome from lovely Western New York!

This seems like a forum I’m going to fit rite into haha. She sounded good. Only issue it has and the seller showed me and I’m ok with was the oil temp was rising and determined the water pump is bad so in spring I will be replacing it.

Got about 5/6 books for the boat the motor outdrive and what not from the first owner so I’ll be looking at those over the winter as well.

And lastly thanks all the warm welcome. Nice to see a active forum for a change

Again, great to have you on board here W5000.
...and let's hope that overheat is just a simple water pump issue.

2 things...

He's from Texas. And..

Ocassionally he has trouble spelling. But not as bad as BB

Also, don't listen to A7 on that overheating issue. He thinks you have to pull the engine and outdrive to fix it. I think he did it so he could clean his engine bay. He's kinda like that. Just saying..
