Boater

Post by NewBoater »

Back into boating after about a 10 year pause (kids went to college). Cobalt 23SC - Storing the boat in a boatel for first time. Can I feel confident they will check drain plug before launching?

Hey NB. Welcome to the Cobaltchat forum. So glad you found us!

They’ll probably leave it out at least once. It’s too easy to forget unless you’re an avid boater with a launching habit pattern.

The good thing is the bilge pump is fantastic.

Any pics?

Again welcome aboard mate!

My storage is dry stack. Drain plug never gets pulled unless I trailer it home or have them place it on a wash or maintenance rack.
At what point in the storage process does the plug get removed?

I was thinking like Mike, but then I realized that I don't even know what a boatel is.
