Hello From Nebraska
Hello From Nebraska
New to Cobalt boats, Long time boater. Ordered a R7 Surf a few months ago, I posted a pic of what mine would look like after i seen one just like it when i toured the Cobalt Plant. Valley Marine in Valley NE is the dealer that I purchased through and they sent me these pics today. I am moving up from a 20' Larson and took my dads advice to just buy the one you want don't go though the 2' idus to get to the one you want it will only cost you more $$$.
She is equipped as follows
380 hp
color is Shale / ebony / pacific blue
Tahoe Grey interior
Shale Piping
Oval Logo
Soft Trac mat Titan / Black color
Dual Battery switch
Platinum Sound W/ Trans Speakers
Standard porta pot
Windlass
Standard board racks
Fender Clips
White manual fold arch
Mooring cover (did not want all the snaps on my this beauty)
Rudder Indicator
Docking Lights
Trans. Tilt Switch
Flagpole With Flag
Previous boat was a Larson 206 Senza, great boat to our young family of 3 just wanted something more spacious and something we can surf behind, also wanted something large enough to handle rough water as we usually boat in congested waters or on very large lakes (congested would be lakes in Nebraska, large lakes would be Okoboji IA or Lake Francis Case SD (Fort Randal)
I am planning to pick it up next week as I have a trip planned with my Family this weekend.
Looking forward to posting more on this forum as summer nears closer.

Re: Hello From Nebraska
So cool to see all of the new surfs this year. This is a sign to what is hot right now. Very sharp. Can't wait to hear how she is this summer. Ten year plan is looking better every day for us Katie

Re: Hello From Nebraska
Honestly Zack i think youd be more pleased with a lightly used 2017 R7 WSS (not surf) in place of this boat. I see all kinds of future problems with the forward drive.
As a kind gesture to a new cobalt chat member, im prepared to trade you straight up for my boat. I know your wondering..."why would he offer this? Its clearly a favorable deal for me?". Well my friend its because we care. And generally have your best interest at heart. Thats what you've signed up for here.
Your welcome.
My people will be in touch with yours regarding specific details.

Re: Hello From Nebraska
Zack.. welcome from California.
That shale color is tough.. it's that lotus Lamborghini looking grey that just says " stare at me"
Have your dealer unwrap her as it's under the stainless rub rail from Cobalt.
And congrats again and glad your here!!
