Nice Rig. Love those Landcruisers too.

BB what's going on? Do we need to have an intervention? ;)

Kidding - what are you doing with that?

Well deep down I had a 1999 Crownline 202 with a 350 mag in it. We had allot of fun in it. But then Cobalt came along. I bought my 200. It had the same power plant my 202 had but was boring to drive. It was just kind of flat. So I got the big block bug. So I always wanted a Crownline 225 with a 496 mag in it. I only found 1or2 and they were either beat up or way over priced. I watch for boats all the time. It's a addiction I have. Well I haven't seen a 225 with one in years. I saw this one and had to have it. If it had the HO I prob keep it. My wife likes the side storage better but I like everything else in a Cobalt better so I'm keeping my black boat. I love it. It's got what I've been looking for since I sold my 202. That boat was a blast to drive. I had it propped right and the engine was strong. So I just bought it to have and to sell it to some lucky soul.
This is my 202 AKA Clifford.
The 225 is Clifford Sr.

Nice rigs.

BB I'm always looking. I'm still trying to find my boat with 5.7 and a duo - Almost impossible... doesn't mean i don't look everyday.

You could call cobalt to see if they ever made one? I would not think that they did. Really your boat with the right prop is the ticket. Yes steering and backing is nicer with dps. One prop is still cheaper than two.

I've seen one but it was in shit shape. Don't know if the 5.7 was factory or not either.

I love mine - I'll prop her right.

Getting her ready to go for the year.....2015 Sierra SLT with the 6.2L hooked up to a 2001 263. The previous two rig, 2014 Silverado with the 5.3 did awesome. I can't wait for the first towing trip to see how well the Max Trailering Package will tow.
