The boat will be used strictly in salt water


Not to rain on your (NautiG & BBP) parade but remember, mxboy2661 boats in saltwater. It WILL eat those trailers alive.
I can have a aluminium trailer under it tomorrow. Free :-)
Sounds like the “boat show specials” I see in Annapolis —free trailer and Boat comes with mandatory key purchase of only $30,000. 😎

Problem is Cobalt dealers can not sell a “new” boat in someone else’s territory. Used is different.

Probably unless it's a year old or last year's model.

It’s anything new B.B.
Very early when I was still getting a foothold on pricing, I found a loaded up leftover 15’ R7 at Stokley Marine that I thought may be something I could buy right. I called the salesman at Stokley who said he would get some numbers together and call me back. When he called me back, he said the owner said he can not sell me the boat unless the sale went through my local Cobalt dealer.

Now Stokley obviously had respect for another dealers territory. It doesn’t mean that all dealers will follow the unwritten rule.

How much is the 300hp upgrade. I'm sure if you start talking to them with the sense your buying today they will come down. I forget did the 16 have a trailer? Your going to be in the $60's no matter what with a 300 I think. Yes even $70 boy my 220 looks good now.lol

BOB, Lol maybe. I just got off the phone with one of the links n I may have a deal on a new 17 with the 300 and it has more upgrades than the one I had for 58k. He s about 4k more. Pretty dam good imo. Is their any banks or credit unions that give better rates than the dealers? 5% is high imo? But I guess cause boating is a luxury they can rape ya. Any banks in the 3s?
