And Lockey, how long did it take you to get from MA to Table Rock? That's quite a trip!
Like BBP said, no cutoff to participate and all Cobalt owners are welcome to come! There will be plenty of info in the months leading up to the event, so you will hear about it lol.

Driving down we went at a good rate and only stopped for gas (7 times) and made it there in 23 hours. It was pouring rain through the night when we started and when we got to TRL it never rained again! on the way home we took our time as we werent as excited haha.

Hope to make it back out in 2020, but flying out and riding with friends. then do the pilgrimage again in 2021

Thank you for the beautiful pictures. The event looks like it was a blast. I'll try to attend in 2020.

I love classic Cobalts, and have owned two. Here are two pictures of my newest baby, a 1985 Condesa. I added 30 amp shore power. You can see the inlet on the port side.

I have a question about her convertible top, which can be used alone or with the full enclosure (as in the two pictures). The front portion clips to the windshield. It provides good shade for the cockpit, but you cannot stand up. Is that top what Cobalt then considered its "bimini" top? Is there a way to convert that to a true, taller bimini top?

That's called a convertible top. Sure you can get custom made binimi top made at a upholstery shop.

Here’s a shot from the 1985 brochure. You’ve got a camper top. It should be easy to order an aftermarket bimini.
