BB my lights are Lumetech if I remember correctly, I'd have to look to be sure. I put them on back before I ever launched the boat for the first time. They're kind of pricey but I didn't want to put something cheap on the transom if I was going to be drilling holes through it

Like southern, I may like the hydraulic version but would sit on it as it came up. That would make a good tv commercial, like the guy riding up the steps.

That would be great.

Man, we would not have the patience for that with the type of boating we do.

Back on task. I love this wake. It took me awhile to get it right.

On the swim step no indicator on helm. Def would know if you left it down. Trim all the way up is within a few mm of it but otherwise down to run no prop won't hit it. Yes sturdy so I would idle reposition without taking up but haven't. Prob not good practice as then you might more easily leave down wben getting underway. But it readily floats up to store so just the reach down to pull the knob. Smim platform is low and the young and/or strong can easily get back aboard without it down but we mainly use it to either put our feet on or slip down and sit on. Def nice feature and wkll never not have one again manual or hydraulic.

You might be offered a job from Cobalt's print advertising department for that one...
Seriously, what a great piece.

I got this one - Definitely doesn't light up the way yours do but it's still pretty cool. I've only turned it on once. No pics yet.

Hey Liquid,
How hard is it for you to turn that drain-plug with your hand and/or fingers to unscrew it? Do they get slippery as the bilge oil-water combo drains over them?

It's got two holes that you can fit a nail through. Vice grips on nail. Turn. My not be the intention but works and i couldn't unscrew with my hand. I always keep two plugs on me anyway in case I drop one.

Ahhh, roger that. I can just barely pick the holes out. Thanks
