Cobalt Boats Forum

This is what I found at the boat show and wasn't even looking. Can’t wait to get it on the water

In my city boats and RV’s must be stored behind the front of the house with a gate in front of it. They will let you keep one 72 hrs in the driveway for up to 72 hrs when getting ready for a trip or after you get home. I wouldn't mind if a Cobalt is sitting out front but not so much as a 30 year old ...

The Starlink Mini works great. It comes with a 12 volt plug in and 110. Starlink have plans starting at $50 per month that you can turn the service on and off if you dont use it year round.

On the spec sheet it list’s fiberglass stringers on the R8. I’m not sure if my R5 has the has Kevlar . On my old 190 it had a sticker on it saying Kevlar stringers.

I found the boat that I want in Costa Rica. But I had to settle for a couple of rental wave runners for my boating fix until it’s warm enough to take the R5 out.

We would greatly appreciate that.

55 degree water, to cold for me to get in. Apparently not everyone thought that.
