It the season to see the seals that come in chasing stripers and Salmon..

My blue boat shows 80 since the rebuild, but I think the meter runs when the stereo is on, so its probably 30, 35?
On my 262 I've only put 4 hours on it in two weekends.

Great whale shot Matt. Wow, that's some cool boating.

We unfortunately started the purchase in April...title acquisition challenge pushed us into July...overheating challenge with engine pull pushed us into October....for a grand total of .....wait for it.....90 minutes!

Guess we will have to make up for this low time next summer. 8-)

25 very happy hours on that beautiful blue Niagara river and Lake Erie.
Brought lots of friends, and ofcourse Captain Ron, my Puerto Rican brada from anada madda. His wife and my wife were childhood friends. When we get together, it’s always a ton of laughs.
I think the top picture is my wife telling me to squash down on the gas pedal!😂

Not sure on the exact number where we left it this year... I know this weekend when we go tuck her in for her nap but somewhere around 20 hours and that's starting with her in July.

Nice pictures.
I have 60 some odd hours on the boat. If there's a break in the weather I'll add a 2 hour tour.

I put about .3 hours on the first one before it caught fire.

We got the new boat 4th of July weekend and were just shy of 50 hours by the last ride in late September. Spent most of our time on Muskegon Lake, Bear Lake, Lake Michigan, and a trip up north to Crystal Lake.

So glad you got to use it that much. Plus that doesn't count the hours you put on the loaner boats. Glad it didn't wreck your summer. Hats off to Cobalt for making it right.
