Cobalt Boats Forum

Trent_boater In response to your question, it varies from model to model. Most cobalt will have a tow point on the back of the boat above the swim platform. That tow point IS acceptable for towing “tubes” or other towable’s. I know it is NOT recommended to tow “tubes” from the tower if that’s what ...

I have always been told by several manufacturers reps, the ski tow ring is for water skiing only. A tube creates way too much force and will rip that ring out of the boat.

Here are some additional pics. You can see us all in the big lock at Swift Rapids. You'd be amazed how fast that thing can fill and empty. And all done with gravity, no pumps needed!

That is a beautiful boat - love the powder blue! Envious of where you do your boating, there is a guy with a youtube channel "Boating with Boogaboo" He is on Lake Simcoe and takes trips all along the Tent severn Waterway. Lake Norman NC is big and beautiful, but nothing like what you have...

Greetings Gentlemen, I am super excited to announce the purchase of my first Cobalt, a brand new CS23 with the Volvo V8 in Bayside Blue. I saw this boat at the Toronto boat show last month, and knew I had to have it. What a gorgeous boat. I have had a Chapparal 21 H2O deluxe with the 4.3MPI for 7 ye...
