In search of 24’ Cobalt

Post by t1butler »

Hello everyone!

I have decided that I am officially looking for a 24’ Cobalt. Like to find one in the mid 2000’s (2005-2010) with under 400 hours. Fresh water boats only!

I live in Kansas City and willing to drive for the right boat.

It is time to teach my daughters how to ski and enjoy lake weekends!

Let me know if anyone is looking to get rid one.

Thanks,
Tim B.

Hey Tim. Welcome to the Cobaltchat forum. So glad you found us!

Great to hear you’ll be joining the family. What was your previous boat?

Some folks here have a great network of friends & acquaintances with Cobalts for sale. Let’s get you into one!

I take it you prefer a trailer. Budget? Would you consider shipping?

Again, welcome aboard mate!

Anyone around Kansas City/ St. Joe who might know the owner of this listing. Asked a few questions of the guy selling and would like to see service records history.

Also what are thoughts on 246 vs. 240? Thanks!

I can tell you bring service records from boat owners is a pain and doesn't always happen. I've bought a few 1 owner boats and still couldn't get the records. So get a survey or look at the maint items and see if they are newer.
Talk to Yt and buy his 240.
