Welcome from Oklahoma! Your boat will be light years ahead of that Stingray. Let's see some pictures of it. If you're going to come around here you have to come bearing photos or it never happened!

Hope to take delivery sometime tomorrow ???? Still a bit up in the air. All I hear is they are great on lakes not salt water areas. ?

I think you will be fine dog. That boat will handle rough water better than any other boat that long. But then, I've had large gulps of Cobalt Cool-aid.

This boat is twice the ride as the stingray. That was a very light boat. Nothing close to a Cobalt.

Welcome to the CobaltChat forum dogwspts. So glad you found us!
Yes, pics of your new baby are a must. You’ll make some great memories with her on those waters. Will you be doing any water sports?
Again welcome aboard mate.

Welcome from another 220 s owner. I sure noticed the improved ride over a smaller, lighter boat. Freshwater, though.
