Since I have been mentioned now not once but twice in this thread let me chime in and welcome you Fin. Great to see another Iowan here! I bought my first Cobalt last fall from Bald Mike. Where are you located and where will you be floating that beautiful boat?

Did you get that from bald Mike?
I did get this from Bald Mike! Have you done business with him too? Was a great dude and he know how to clean a boat! He made this thing look brand new.
Bigblockus also bought his boat from him.

We are great friends. Trying to get him and I to open up Bald Mike's north!
I actually was going to buy that boat to flip but I already had one extra in my stable so I called him and told him to buy it. There's not too many red 250's in Iowa so I was pretty sure it was the one. Congrats.
I love the boat but everything I have is for sale for the right price!! 😁

I'm in Bondurant, we do most of our boating at saylorville since it is the closest. However, we plan to get down to Rathbun and Red Rock this summer. Would like to get up to Okoboji this summer but I don't think it'll happen. HBU?

Welcome from Austin, Texas! I grew up in Marshalltown and have great memories of my childhood in Iowa. Great looking boat!

Welcome. I too enjoy garage/driveway boating. There's a thread for that.
