When is the A29 being released? Surprised it was announced in Feb 2019 and we haven't heard a word since with more detail (unless I've missed something?)

Re: A29
they were supposed to unveil it to the public back in July at the Cobalt Regatta on Table Rock. However the salesmen told me that after receiving feedback from the miami show they have "gone back to the drawing board" on it and are changing a bunch of stuff. So it has been delayedMIboater wrote: Mon Oct 14, 2019 2:21 pm When is the A29 being released?

Bobrae might also know more on this. If not we can get him to call and find out? He's got connecting now. Uncle Pack wouldn't tell me.

Re: A29
.
A boat that size is a tough sell without twins. Hope it’s gone back to the drawing board.

Re: A29
Did someone say drawing board? We saw it I believe.
Here’s a shot without the Deco tower. ( blurr as only one I found with no tower) Any Loce? And from Miami showing the windy passengers seat. Could be a bow thruster away from stardom.

Re: A29
I have been waiting like mad for any news on this too. I agree, needs 2 screws at that size. I wish cobalt would offer Ilmor as en engine option too. Make the new 29 with a Cuddy and little bath separate and I think we have a winner. At least my 2 girls (Unknown third coming in a few weeksj and wife think so... need a potty and nap space for all day boating. If they don’t nail this, I think formula 330 CBR might be our ticket.

Honestly, I don’t think I would be interested in the A29 at all. Just not a size/power where I would be motivated enough to trade.
The only boat I could see myself buying for our style boating here would be an R30 with a set of 502 BB.

Re: A29
What instantly turned me off was when my dealer told me even with a single motor this boat will be in the same price range as an r30 with twins. I’m not sure why cobalt would do this because we all know the R series caused the end of the single screw a series (a25/8).Tuscany wrote: Fri Oct 25, 2019 2:43 pmMy thoughts exactly.Spine Guy wrote: Tue Oct 15, 2019 1:47 pm I have been waiting like mad for any news on this too.

Re: A29
Oh man, chasing a price point is for different boat companies. No way I would take an A29 with a single screw over the R30. I can pack my paddle north sud and electric pump easy enough. Stow N Go is cool but not needed at all.
Re: A29
Spine the A29 we boarded at the factory tour had a cuddy. You can order one with a high floor bow or low floor. Both have open bows, but one has a high deck with no seating, but a place to spread out and sun. The low floor has seating just like a bow rider.Spine Guy wrote: Wed Oct 30, 2019 5:38 pm Oh man, chasing a price point is for different boat companies.

The low floor has an area underneath on the starboard side to sit, and a person can crawl up in the bow to lay as they have a bed area there. But you better not be claustrophobic.
The high floor has the same seating underneath on starboard, and a cuddy running across the beam, with a higher ceiling. So you get both an open bow and a cuddy.

But hey I don't think it has twins either. It had a pop up T.V. Though.

36, 38 39.... What's a few feet? A?
(for my Canadian buddies, see what I did there?)
Whatever it was we all climbed on did have a TV that came up behind the Captains seat that seemed pretty cool. But I would have been more impressed it it would have been a box fan. Or maybe a ceiling fan hanging from the tower.
