Totally Worth the Wait!

Post by Airclnr »

The wife and I were finally able to enjoy our, new to us, 2008 302 last week and all I can say is wow! The difference between our 24' Rinker and the new Cobalt is night and day. The smooth ride, performance with twin engines and the fit and finish is absolutely amazing. Now we're counting the days to get back to the lake!

Congrats on the new boat! I bet the 302 rides like a caddy compared to the old rinker!

Now get some life jackets on the pups😎
