new member from KY and TN
Joined this site last May when we had the R3 delivered to Norris lake. Bought the boat at the Cincinnati boat show last year when we went to see how to remove pink stains from our old boat's seats. Ended up buying the Cobalt. That was the EASY way to fix the seats.
Now adding JL Audio speakers to the tower. Getting good info from this site.

Re: new member from KY and TN
Great looking R3 you have there! welcome aboard. May I ask what is powering your R3?
Also I like your style. I need to get these stains out. Nah I will just buy a new boat. That theory sounds like something I would do myself

Re: new member from KY and TN
I like how you think. I had the a similar problem of not having enough people capacity on my old boat, explored replacing the captains chairs with back to back to get more seating. Bought a bigger Cobalt, problem solved!

Re: new member from KY and TN
some sun tan lotions cause a bacteria to grow between the vinyl. When it dies it turns pink. Now there is a process that companies can do on the vinyl to get rid of it. Not cheap (But still cheaper than a new boat) Nothing else seems to do anything with it

Welcome from Wisconsin. I just joined the site myself. Seems to have great info between all of the sarcasm and misspelled words. We hope we can help you spend lots of money.

Welcome from Oklahoma! Glad to have you and glad you jumped put of the lurking shadows!
Two things you probably already know if you've been reading at all:
BB is a great source of information and can help you find anything.
BB is full of BS.
One of those points is slightly ahead of the other, but part of the fun around here is figuring out which one!
