Hey e@c, welcome to the CobaltChat forum. So glad you found us!

You are going to make some great memories on this one owner 206.

Some initial questions:
How will you be using her?
What year is this Cobalt?
Are there any maintenance records that came with it?
How are the batteries, bellows, plugs, gimbal bearing, u-joints, and outdrive fluid holding up? I would refresh all fluids & change filters. How about the serpentine belt. Any cracking?

Pics are also a must. :D

.
Again, welcome aboard mate!

Welcome. Yep ujoints need service., gimbal bearing, Double check your bellows. Change drive fluid, engine oil and filter, fuel separator. Pull the props lube the shaft. Inspect shift cables. Anodes? Batteries? Stainless steel cup holders need to be rotated or installed. Trailer? Full trailer service needed. How old are the tires?

Welcome from Oklahoma! Don't pay any attention to these guys. A7 pulls his engine just to change the oil and Bebe never takes his boat out of the garage. Just be sure to put in a new impeller and then climb in that sucker next spring and use it!

Sigh. No pics. What a disappointment.

However I will give marks for ( I believe) the first email handle. It certainly is "Cutting Edge".
