Cobalt Boats Forum

Seems outer armor do have the plans for 273.
I’ve asked my Cobalt dealer as commercial sewing won’t deal direct only via dealers.
I’m told it will be an OEM version if I order - so I heading that way.

Anyone had experience with the OEM models I’ve seen the utube and they look good.

Hi

Looking for a full mooring cover or a new tonneau (storm cover) for my 273.
Tried a few on line suppliers but risky, will it fit?
Custom covers are frighteningly expensive so hoping there must be a good after market source.

Can any one assist please with a recommendation.
I tried my local ...

Got it. ( ok haven’t been with the boat since early December)

Yes, holding the two buttons down for a few seconds opens up the gauge resets.
You can select what you want displayed, metric or imperial readings etc.
Seems the Speedo is the primary gauge as the tachometer won’t display all the outputs ...

Just on my second point.

The chrome bezel and polycarbonate screen are like wise distressed, I’d like to at very least to change the bezel & clear screen.

Does anyone know if spare parts are available - where?

I’ve noted the complete instrument can be sourced but it seems quite pricey plus hard ...

Thanks I’ll give it a shot.

Hello
Just enjoyed a 100 hour service on my 2014 - 273, I’ve owned it 2 years and can lay claim to >40 trouble free hours!
The batteries were disconnected and the digital instruments have reverted to imperial measurements and I’m a knot, meter, KPa guy so can anyone advise how I can change the ...

It’s a always harder to find things in OZ.
Fortunately the dealer came through and has located a piece.
Thanks for your help.

I’m assuming the windscreen frames are pretty similar on a lot of cobalts?

My 2014 - 273 has a piece of black extruded plastic inserted at the base of the screen to cover the fixing screws, purely cosmetic. As luck would have it it must have blown off at some point when the boat was being delivered ...

Yes I guess it’s one of those things I need to master, but your correct hit absolutely flies in reverse.

A month into my 273 acquisition, noting my throttle is a basic cable deal and fairly ordinary, some advise please?

I’ve a 8.2 seacore with Bravo 3, shifting from neutral to reverse is pretty aggressive and quite difficult to modulate, although I guess I’ll learn. I note there are retrofit throttle ...

Another question?
My boats fitted with Webasto Chiller plate, under the seat behind the sink.
There’s no mention of it in the Cobalt manual, whilst I have a Webasto ‘manual’ I’ve no idea where the condenser is or where it’s wired to, there’s power at the switch but nothing on the thermostat switch ...

Great effort, thanks.
My profile seems different though,I’II add a photo.

Black trim at base of front windscreen it seems a common extrusion all around the lower section of the glass area.
Tried skipper, not listed. I’ll talk with cobalt dealer locally.

Cheers

Anyone know where I can get some trim, the black plastic under the screen is missing, it’s shaped like a figure “7” about 30mm x 12 mm?

Well done almost 5 hours, so given it was 62 when I bought it I can almost claim 10%.
All good, can get 40 knots at around 4500 rpm WOT, no engine issues.
Cruise really nice as shown.
