Hey all, love the site. Hard to believe that you can just punch in the brand of boat ya own and "forum" and come to a spot with so much knowledge.
Live and boat in Prince Edward Island, Canada. Not a dealer for 1000's of miles so this forum will be my "Dealer Support, without the Stealership price". :lol:

Picked up a 2014 SD 26 from a buddy of mines dealership. Of course they dealer in everything but, Cobalt. I got a great deal on it cause they know nothing about Cobalts and this one came with some work required. The tower had been replaced under warranty for paint problems, and the bimini brackets were all in the wrong spots so the the bimini wouldn't work. Gauge trim rings, throttle controls, and stereo remotes are pitted, and the carpets are toast.

Can't wait to get some hours on this thing!

Welcome from Texas Willy’s. Glad to have you onboard. I agree, there’s a lot of knowledge on this site and a lot of fun also.

Wow you have a endless supply of water there. I'm sure the salt water isn't friendly there. You could replace the carpet with aqua marine or a sea dek material. Guages can be had.
At least you have a power plant in her.
Again welcome.

Another welcome from Texas. I grew up in Iowa and traveled to Canada every fall for fishing trips with my Dad and brother. Enjoy the boat!
