Hello from Madison, WI

Post by Riggs10 »

I am new to the site. I bought BBP's most recent project! Hopefully, I don't sink on my first trip. :lol:

It won't take many trips for her to be smiling. She just couldn't believe I couldn't find something I liked between the Rinker and Cobalt!

Awesome! Welcome from OKlahoma! You're going to love that boat, she's a nice one.

Stick around and read a bit, and hopefully you'll pick up a nugget here and there. So is this your first boat?

Welcome from St. Louis! Upgrading from the don Johnson rinker to a blue angel cobalt is a nice upgrade!

Hope to see more posts and would love to see some pics once it gets a little warmer and you can get it out on the water!

I will definitely get some pictures of her on the water. I am getting the itch bad right now! Probably getting warmer down in St. Louis.

Teal is definitely making a comeback! 😀.

I originally thought the yellow trailer was too much. However, there are few things in life you can be wild and get a pass! Boat colors and swim suits are two that come to mind,
