1988 19BR purchase...

Post by Hinchcliffe »

Looking at a Cobalt tomorrow and have searched for any specific problem areas but I see nothing but the standard stuff.

Anything particular specific to this model?

Nothing you wouldn’t look for on any other old wood construction boat. How much do they want for it?

Anyone have a good line on an original windshield? And where do I find replacement Cobalt side stickers?

Well congrats. Watch ebay. Call your local Cobalt dealer for decals and emblems. Go to greenbay prop for windshields.

It looks really nice inside. Get that gel coat sanded out and it will shine again.
What is wrong with the windshield?
