Cobalt Boats Forum

Bum, One thing that wasn't available on your surf was trim tabs. That corrects a LOT of ride issues on my boat. While not having them on our first boat, I ordered tabs because I thought it would help correct weight distribution issues with the dumb azz port side rear seating overload in the 3/5/7 se...

All trailer tires seem to be built similar. Kind of weakened to absorb shock, shallow tread, and sidewall construction designed to bend sideways while turning. IMO, untrustworthy and prone to delamination. I know there are a few that are at the top, like the GY Endurance, but I'm still not trusting ...

The tires I replaced were a typical E rated Chinese brand.
They were aged out, but the tread wear was substantial.
I realized the brake controller was the problem when I hooked to a different trailer with drums.
EOH has a totally different feel.

A warning about EOH brakes that I have learned... Drums or surge brakes lag behind tow vehicle application, and you can feel them apply. Regular electric brake application is easily felt and adjusted. EOH brakes are a different animal. They apply so smooth, and apply so seamlessly perfect with your ...

The truth?
Chop off a couple feet from each advertised length, because the swim deck is included in the overall hull length.
My R7 is a 27 1/2' boat with a 2' swim deck? It's actually a 25 1/2' hull.

It's the 190 for sure. it is the greatest Cobalt of all time Absolutely! I thought this was thouroughly discussed and agreed upon years ago. Liquid made the statement, and that was that..... At the tour in Neodesha, we let Cobalt engineers know exactly what their best work was. :D If there were a s...

...and make sure it isn't trimmed 100% to the top. That is a built in safety feature.

Well... i'll let you stare at the lake for another week or two...grow a little sad...a little fond of what was... then i'll give you a call . By then, you might be ready for a trip on the river. Eric might need a day with the guys also...

Oh...that mailbox...

Supply and demand dictates.
When supply was east to come by, I bought our boat at roughly 35% off in 2017.
Today, I’d be happy with 20-25%

Just leave it up. It’s designed to travel up.

Another rock solid build from Loadmaster!

Hello all, We are looking at a new 2022 R8 and a new 2023 R6. Comparably equipped, both are 380hp with the Merc in the r8 and the VP in the r6. Both are plenty big enough for our Arkansas lakes and towing either occasionally won’t be an issue. The dealer before any negotiating is about $75k off the...

23’. might have to be “If Darkness Had A Son” by Metallica.
My wife may disagree.

I did the drain plug. Wired it to the existing dash switch. I didn’t want to drill holes in my transom. I know..don’t judge me.. Decent, not incredible. But, in the last four years, we’ve only been out at night once. And there's my dilemma- Maybe I'll just get a puppy.... How is Miss Elle T? HEY Sa...
