Cobalt sighting in Europe

Post by Airbagguy »

I’m not sure why I was so fascinated seeing a Cobalt in Germany, maybe its because boats being trailered in general are not as common as they are in the states. My family thought I was crazy when I handed the phone to our son and asked him to take a few pictures for CobaltChat :lol:

Yes, I think I’m more fascinated by that oddly designed trailer. :shock:

Kinda odd supporting the trailer with the boat (straps off the ski platform) instead of the trailer supporting the boat.

It looks like a 220. My 200 I strapped it down right there also. The swim platform brackets have spots for that made into them. Then the tie-down straps don't touch the transom. My 220 has them but I don't use those on this boat.

That trailer seems like it would add some time to your launch and retrieve process for sure. The Germans definitely make saftey a priority.

Ya, I’m wondering if that is a delivery trailer vs an everyday use trailer. Curious what was pulling it.

Pretty sure that’s an everyday trailer, it was being pulled by a motorhome.
