Re: Cobalt after Malibu take over

The great recession hit in 2008 and many boat builders, including Cobalt, had to cut corners to survive. Many models were eliminated or consolidated with similar hulls and contractors cut costs as well in order to survive. Cobalt's long time president and founder Pack St. Clair also stepped down in...

Re: Another season in the books

Same...my boat was taken off buoy in Tahoe today for the season. Unfortunately only put about 8 hours on it...late delivery, schedule conflicts...then the fires. Looking forward to having it back on the lake in May!

Hope others are continuing to enjoy their boats.

Re: Sept 2021 pics.

Friend took a picture of my boat the other day. I have finally been able to get up to Tahoe as the fire situation has improved. We have a couple more weeks until buoys are removed for the season. Friend's dogs liked it! https://i.postimg.cc/HsdT8Jkv/C524-B61-D-3-D1-F-49-F7-A3-C8-3-AB1482-E37-D7.jpg

Re: Lake Tahoe Cobalts

Hope all of you that are impacted by the fire stay safe. I am out of fire/evacuation range, thankfully, for the time being. Terrible what is happening near SLT and surrounding areas.

Re: Why Cobalt SUCKS

I have posted about problems with my new boat in the R forum. Yeah, disappointing for a boat of this price tag and reputation...but I would never in a thousand years post a separate thread with a title like this.

And...Pack is probably sorry about your experience.
