Hey all, i'm thanking you all in advance for the advice and feedback. A few months ago my wife and I bought a 2006 Cobalt 220. I've owned a few boats but this one takes the cake. Cobalt boats are amazing. We were lucky to find this boat with low hours and in mint condition. It doesn't lack speed with the Merc 496 Bravo 1 - she runs very smooth on the lakes around my neck of the woods.

Welcome from St. Louis/Table Rock Lake. Nice looking 220 you have there! I bet it is a real fun boat with a 496. Look forward to seeing more pictures.

WOW....that is one beautiful color combo Brian! Again, so glad you found us. We love your pics!!!

Welcome from Oklahoma! Glad you found us and that's a beautiful boat you have. I'm thinking Idaho boating must be Bombdiggity!

Welcome from Texas. That is one sharp looking boat! Bet she flies with the 496/Bravo 1 combo. Congrats

Welcome from KY! beautiful boat! Always loved those colors!

Welcome. As everybody else - great power plant for that size. Enjoy and and fun. Let's here the speed? I know it's not a go fast but has to be close to 60 which is plenty fast enough for me

Nice and welcome from California!! Perfect Combo and we look forward to a captains report as your in altitude there!

More pics!!

Man that's 2 new 220's with bb's this year. I couldn't imagine having such a thing
Congrats. I'm sure you will loce it for a long time.

On buttery flat water i've reached 70mph... with just my wife and I in the boat. 65 is easy with 4 people and about that time my wife is giving me the "stink eye."

It's a great setup... Cobalt Strong!

Welcome!

That’s some decent speed, check it with GPS as mine shows I’m going 70 on the speedo but but GPS shows 62-63. You do have a bravo 1 so that should add a couple mph. Nice boat though!

I'm selling my my old slow poke boat for one of these ultra fast merc 496 models. No way it's hitting 70. At least it may feel good watching the speedo hit 70 but it's more depressing when you gps it at 62.

I'm putting a 520 in mine to get 80 then!

Oh that's happening this year yet. I have to run my hills soon to see what they will run. I'm sure mines slower

It will be fun either way. I can’t say that I’d win for sure.
