Cobalt Boats Forum

which quick release fender hangers do you have?

I really like the idea of the ability to remove the decking for various reasons. This seems like it would work well for someone taking their boat ouI of the water after use and storing in a dry environment. That said, have high suspicion that if the Matworks deck (and under the decking) was wet when...

This product seems to get rave reviews.

My experience is that in a moderate to high speed turn with the outdrive trimmed up to cruising speed level, you can experience some cavitation. However, this does not indicate a problem with the mechanics of the boat.

Glad everyone is OK. I would think the trailer would be in the 5-7K range, or half the cost of a new one. I've been looking for a year and almost every Cobalt trailer I've found that has been sold us under $5K in very good to excellent condition. Biggest problem selling them is the color and the we...

I can always count on titaniumboy - thanks for the feedback. After reading more online reviews and watching a couple YouTube videos, I've determined that, in my opinion, a bilge pump that is not submersible, is a problem waiting to happen. Ordered a Rule LP900S "LoPro" BP. Will post before...

Bilge pump (Sahara Mk2) is a year old and was installed by the service center at the marina where I bought the boat. My understanding is that the BP has a hot electrical connection even with the batteries turned off and the BP should run when the float rises due to water in the bilge. True? My BP do...

thanks for the replies.

Is my question out in left field? I assume if there are beeps pre-start there must be other beep(s) sequence(s) for other reasons. Anybody have a resource identifying what different beeps mean?

After an exhaustive search I've come up empty. When I turn the key from off to run (prior to starting) on my 2007 240 5.7Gxi I hear 3 beeps. Then starts normally and runs perfectly. Since the boat had a full survey and no problems found I have just enjoyed getting to know the boat and how she operat...

I didn't see it mentioned...a survey from a qualified mechanic will keep you from buying a problem boat. It will also give you some leverage on price should they find something needing attention. Lastly, a sea trial is a must. If possible, take a buddy who owns a similar boat (length, in/out drive)....

tried all the switches and none of the three transom lights illuminate. I'll have to look under the dash to see if there is a loose or disconnected wire.

2008 272, have replaced every bulb not located in dash-lights with LEDs, except for the 3 transom lights. They go on/off with the interior lights. I'll have to try mine again and check all three to see if I have any working with the interior lights. When I checked, I only pulled the cover off enoug...

Lol...what Titaniumboy said. Only white interior lights on the 240.
