Hey b88. So glad you found us!…and yeeeeehawwww another 260 series hull. My favorite.
First upgrade will be stainless cup holders. It will bring your Cobalt into the 21st century.
It appears you have the transom filler cushions option. Did they come with the purchase?
How is she powered? Ask away my friend.
And welcome aboard mate!

We picked it up from Kimberling City. We have a place in Reeds Spring MO, with a tri-toon. So the cobalt will stay up here with us and be on the ole mississippi

Nice my friend.
Stainless cup holders can easily be purchased on EBay or
Amazon. They’re everywhere.
You can purchase unlit ones or some choose the RGB versions.

If you ever see a red 262 on the river with the tower that is my old one.
