R3 in 2 Weeks!
Re: R3 in 2 Weeks!
I really like the additional of the red stripe. Sets off the blue nicely.

Congrats. Purdy. No docking lights? The boys are going to have a great summer.

Didn’t go with docking lights. Hopefully won’t regret that?Big Block Power wrote: Fri Jun 21, 2019 7:30 pm Congrats. Purdy. No docking lights? The boys are going to have a great summer.
Taking official delivery Thursday... the boys didn’t want to get off the boat even at the dealer!

That's so cool. I think I would add them. Try to find the larger ones. Congrats again.

Haha. It was a boys trip, as was the test drive. My wife hasn’t been on a Cobalt yet. I can’t wait for her reaction.Big Block Power wrote: Fri Jun 21, 2019 7:36 pm That's so cool. I think I would add them. Try to find the larger ones. Congrats again.

Re: R3 in 2 Weeks!
Oh my. She's in for a big surprise. I'm surprised they called you before they even prep it. Just in case something isn't right. I rather call you when it's set. You got a beaut!ryandmartin wrote: Fri Jun 21, 2019 7:48 pmHaha. It was a boys trip, as was the test drive. My wife hasn’t been on a Cobalt yet.

Re: R3 in 2 Weeks!
That is another great colour combination. I had trouble deciding between your colour combo and mine. The Navy shows darker in pictures than it is in person and the colour isn’t a true navy to my eye so I ultimately decided Ebony was more to my taste. I think your boat looks really classy. I hope you lost some “adventure” stories when you get it out on the water.ryandmartin wrote: Fri Jun 21, 2019 4:53 pm Well today was exciting. Was supposed to be my ship date. Got a call from the dealer around 9:30am, and he said “your boat just got here”. Needless to say, was pretty excited. Loaded up the boys, and headed up there (about 1 1/2 hours away) to see the boat and get the registration paperwork.

Re: R3 in 2 Weeks!
I haven't heard from the dealer yet, but its only Monday. I expect I'll get a call by Wednesday that it has arrived. We have a family get together in the city this weekend, but after everyone leaves on Monday, I'll be heading to the lake. The original plan is for it to be delivered on Tuesday (July 2nd)

I’ve got a pretty busy week but I’ll make some time early Thursday or Friday to do a pre purchase inspection.Big Block Power wrote: Mon Jun 24, 2019 7:34 pmDid you call yet. Is it here.
