Back again from Texas - 2008 Cobalt 222

Post by 123bigjoe »

Greetings from the Lone State. I’ve rejoined the forum after picking up my fourth Cobalt. Living on Lake Conroe for 17 years have had two 220’s, then bumped it up to 2008 272 some years back before falling into the bottomless pit of a 2011 Malibu 25LSV to tow my granddaughter through the big wake. Sure made me regret trading in the 272! Went boatless for a few years before retirement then the wife said I needed a new boat for the grandkids (8 of them now). There was only one boat on my list: a COBALT! Started the hunt for a cash buy in the $40K range and found the ‘08 222 last year well under budget. (One of those at the right place at the right time).
A deep clean, service, and a new set of Polk speakers and the grandkids are all set.
