Greetings fellow Cobalt Owners. I have been reading things on this site long enough I felt it was time to actively participate. I am new to Cobalt; patiently waiting for my 2018 R35 to be built which allegedly started on 2/27. I am told it is a 4-6 week build. Too excited, it’s going to be a long March/April.

As I don’t have any pictures to share yet, here is one of the Formula I let go to make this happen. Great boat, but growing family needed more room and shade so we took a big step up.

Hey joe from Oklahoma. Great to have you here. So glad you found us!

I’m a big Formula fan as well (as are many others here.)

You’ll have to post pictures of your new Cobalt when you take delivery.
What are some of the options you ordered?

... and once again welcome aboard mate.

Welcome from St. Louis! And that was one nice looking formula you had. I bet she was hard to let go. But you will love your r35! Like A7 said what options did you go with?

I didn't go with the captains call this time. I had it added on the Formula and it was fun, but I am growing up a little and this is a family boat. I am of the opinion that it adds little/nothing in the way of performance to an engine in this category. If I had a 80+ mph boat I would have to have it again though.

I did get the SureShade.

Welcome to the gang from a fellow Okie! What part of Oklahoma are you in? What lake do you go to? I'm anxious to see more pictures of your boat!

Hey you're not this Joe are you? Or Oklahoma Joe that builds smokers?
