Re: First Time Cobalt Owner Ordering R3 Questions
The mooring cover is great at first then after a couple years it sucks. If you are on a covered slip then great, if you are on a trailer or uncovered slip do something else. Mine is 5 years old and for the past two year I had water getting through. Had a custom cover made for $1200 and it solved my issue. If I ordered new. I would buy the snap covers and get a custom over the tower cover made

I just like to preach about my dislike. However the company has amazing customer service. I would go with the snap covers as he has a lift cover. 100% get the electric version of tower. Save you unscrewing the bolts to keep tower set. It is easy, but everytime....go the e_tower versionBig Block Power wrote: Wed Sep 23, 2020 12:26 pmAj his tower has to be lowered everytime so a over the tower Prob won't work.ajcampen wrote: Wed Sep 23, 2020 8:49 am The mooring cover is great at first then after a couple years it sucks.

Really etower? You would get that with a lift? I love my manual tower?
As someone said in this thread that some dumb a$$ even hit a garage with his tower. He forgot to take it down. Lol idiot!
I belive that idiot had it lowered he or she just didn't rotate these stupid legs on the tower and that made his garage door taller.
You know it's going to happen. Just like leaving a binimi ip and hitting that. Lol

Re: First Time Cobalt Owner Ordering R3 Questions
Did you place the order yet?
We have never regreted the fact that we didn't get a table. Just something else to store.
Sometimes I wish we'd gotten the flag pole. I like the RGB lighting.
Premium sound it great...haven't heard the platinum.
We also are glad we got mooring cover. I do not like snaps on boat.
