So who has owned a Cobalt boat the longest?

[dustinm]

We have owned our CS for exactly one year now, does this count?

[Holy Smokes]

I had other boats before coming home to Cobalt....

1979 Cigarette 33', 2005-2009
1999 293, 2009 to 2017
2006 343, 2017 to 2020
2005 360, 2020 to present

Got into Cobalts as we needed something with a few more creature comforts than the old Cig provided. Kept the 293 for almost 8 years. Went shopping for a 360, but stumbled across a 2006 343 with 525's that the guy was eager to sell. Why not! Was a fun couple years! But decided its purpose was point A to point B as fast as you desired, but other than that it wasn't a great "cove" boat. Continued to scour the inter-webs for a 360 and looked at several across the country. Ended up finding a cherry right in our backyard (LOTO home lake).

Very cool HS.

Any pics of the 33 Cig? Big fan of Walters, Wynne & Aronow designed hulls.

Had the '79 before the 293 then the little Cig20 (1974) 2011-2019. Kinda kick myself for selling both of them. Once you convince the wife 2 boats are the norm it's hard to go back to only one!
