Cobalt Boats Forum

I did. Super helpful.

My boat and platform should resemble this photo, with primary difference being that the 212 has a two level platform.

BBP- No. I chose not to have any logo added. Bobo, Are you ordering direct from SeaDek or SCWake? I was going to go with Aquamarine, but they didn't have templates already set-up for the 212. When I called SeaDek same thing - nothing for a 212. But when I called SCWake they were great and informed ...

2002 262 - asking $35,900 (Tulsa, OK)

• Volvo 8.1 DP

• 495hrs

• Captain's call

• Matching painted trailer

• Bow and cockpit covers

• Bimini

• SS docking lights

• Dual batteries

• SeaDek on the swim platform (but not extended platform)

Another route - skip the factory light option. Buy the SS lights separately and have them installed after you take delivery.

I’m in! Hopefully they have a template for the 212.

Thanks for setting this up YT. Our boats are all going to look great - thanks to you!

And another one that is close to Liquid's neck of the woods. Right price. Needs a bit of TLC but generally looks clean. It is a Merc big block with a Bravo XZ (single prop) and doesn't have the extended swim platform. Not sure if that's a deal killer for you... https://syracuse.craigslist.org/bod/d/...

Above your target price, but may be worth a look.

2006 262 with 8.1 Volvo DP on a trailer. Has 384 hours. Extended swim platform. Bow and cockpit covers.

Here's a 2001 262 with the tower and extended swim deck. 8,1 Gi, hours are about the same but it is cheaper than your original even when you add in the delivery. https://www.boattown.com/default.asp?page=xPreOwnedInventoryDetail&id=4555914&p=2&s=Year&d=D&fr=xPreOwnedInventory Ju...

Interesting move by Lexus considering the Toyota Epic ski boat foray from '98 to '01:

Maybe they learned their lesson...

Now that's an upgrade! Well done YT. Entire forum can't wait to see the final product.

I will admit to buying new decals for my trailer. It's a disease.

Misery loces company. Or something like that.

Agreed. I would want to keep a close eye. I have a Westland cover for my 2007 and I've towed about 600 miles at speeds up to 70MPH. Does it flap against the hull? A little bit. Has it led to some minor scratches? Yes. They're more like very fine horizontal swirl marks (if that makes sense) and I wil...

On newer Cobalt's like yours the factory mooring cover is designed for towing. Here's a video from the manufacturer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XjTHYjhz45o No need to drop the bimini. If you're concerned about damage to the Sunbrella from bugs or road debris, I've heard of people wrapping the b...
