Cobalt Boats Forum

Here at year end, running the boat prior to winterization, my port 496mag HO is drastically under performing and very sluggish. Half power. More throttle does not produce more power. It’s extremely “fat” or sluggish starting off trying to get on plane.

Thoughts???

Loading up the Sea Foam through the gas & oil prior to putting away for season. Anyone else do this. Need to run through the 90 gallons. Shouldn’t take too long with the twins. . What a wonderful 80 degree Oct 21st day.

Thanks guys. Best family time on planet earth. Good to hear from you Aslan7. I haven’t been here on forum in forever. Krob: we are on Lake Tenkiller in Oklahoma. I keep boat in storage near house during winter months (Nov-April). My pics are when me and the boys detail it b4 each season. I was am al...

We just got to the water this year. Saved a cone clutch repair till mid summer. DIY with a buddy. Wish I would have done it sooner. Was more emotional than hard. $1200 in parts and 3 days after hours. On the water!

Thanks fellas. Fun to catch and share those reflections only a Cobalt can do.

What do you all think?

That’s great top end. I can get 72 or 73 in right conditions in my 282 with twin 496mg HO’s.

Great thread. I have a putty too. S never used it before. I’m thinking this year I want to use every option I got. Why not. So, thanks for posting this thread.

That’s great top end. Thanks for the added pics. The 996 Turbo is 02. It’s OBO. Great time to make offer. I know the guy personally. Oh, and he is offering me $1500 to find a buyer...LOL. Anything in $60’s is on the money in my book. Brand new OEM Porsche trans $16k, EVO 660 Kit $25k, brake, wheels,...

Whooo Hooo. A man who knows how to show pics! Wow. Great 996 and amazing 263. I bet she scoots. I haven’t really seen any whipples on 496HO’s. Neat to know. Did you change drives at all? Here’s my buddies 996 he listed tonight online. 55k miles or so. New trans.

Porsche post sale regrets are tough whipple263. Nice mods. My friend has his ‘04 996 Turbo with EVO 660 & new Porsche trans for sale $75k. I can get that lower for you if interested......he wants a Cobalt. And I want to see that whipple please. And yes, the 911 992 series has gotten too big whic...

The one thing I haven’t mastered is my lake fashion. Specifically, a good pair of lake shoes. I keep ruining all my slip on deck shoes that I love. Sandals never work. Marina water moccasins type shoes always fall apart. Tennis shoes are to much work and don’t work when wet. Soooo, anyone have a goo...

Beautiful pics! January boating......just teasing us.

Let me get this straight. A beautiful 968, a forever favorite 993 C2 S, and of course the Turbo are the first three to respond to this thread? Talk about a goldmine, already made this thread worth it! Aslan, beautiful pics! Love that color! So rare to ever see a 968. Porsche should have continued th...

Thanks ourlee. Bought truck new and it only has 57,000 miles. Used to haul boat and car.

Thanks Aslan for the wet sounds tower speakers mention.

Rabiddawg, best color combo.
