I was getting ready to mow the lawn, and from the corner of my eye, this hit me..
I think the picture speaks for itself!
Just insane how flawless the finish is...

I won't admit how long I looked at the picture, trying to figure out where the boat was...

I'll give this a third. It wasn't long, but longer than it should have been. My only regret about buying a white boat.

Crazy, isn't it?
Since I'm posting reflections, here's one of my shed that I'm moving, and the site work for a Cobalt garage.. :lol:
As you can clearly see the lawn in this area took a pounding from the tree cutting crew thinning some of my trees, and removing trees to make way for the garage.

Cobalt must really take care of their molds.. I don't know how you can buff a perfect reflective finish like this.

Pardon my own selfish humor, but I just stuck a little rub rail in the pic to see if you guys would get it.
If it were reversed and I was looking at that first pic, I'd still be trying to figure it out.. :?

The only problem is that any rub rash or scrape will stick out like a sore thumb.
I have a boat load of huge fenders for any docking situation to try and prevent a scrape..
My usual go-to fenders are three 12" x 35". Taylor Tuff Ends
I also have a pair of 15" ball fenders that I think BB recommended..
I think I could safely dock the Cornelia Marie without a scratch...

Tusc I got it right off but only because I've been trying to figure out how do the same kind of shot. What I'm picturing is how many angles you had to try before you could take that picture without your own reflection in it? 😁
Awesome pic

I was walking by it, staring with loving eyes, and said, yo......look..at..that.....
It's tall to begin with and sits pretty high on the trailer, so the angle was natural. I just grabbed the phone out of my truck and snapped it.
I have it sitting under a tree in the shade until the building is up, so that was the right lighting.
Credit goes to the iphone7, which I have no idea how to edit a photo even if I wanted to.

I'd love to take a tour of that factory. It would be very cool to do. We all should go, and I nominate Liquid to pick up the tab. :D
Their R series garbage can totally sucks, and so does the anchor storage compartment. But daemmm, they know how to build a solid, beautiful boat..

No kidding.. :D
I do have the garbage can thing perfected. I'm thinking of patenting it so I can sue Brunswick next year.
The anchor compartment will be more challenging.
The docking lights need to be spaced out about 8" on either side. Form in a hanger and ba-bam! Fixed.

While we're at it, add a convenient side door access to the main storage compartment that's currently only accessed under the right side front seat.

After you sue and get on patent the anchor compartment and access door you'll have more money than Oprah. Do i hear free boats for everyone ? Lol
