How many Cobalt’s?
Re: How many Cobalt’s?
The last time I toured the plant. The tour guide was asked the total number built he said the average is about 1,000 boats per year. So close to 50,000 have been built?/ Don't know about the early years or the recession years??? So Driller do you work as a book maker as your side hustle??

Driller is a numbers guy and very good at it. I'm thinking if he focused his skill into numismatic talent and teamed with Tuscanys fortune telling ability we might be able to corner the market.
Hmm. I think we may be on to something here..

It is likely I am considerably low, but the number isn't 100,375.Bfun220 wrote: Mon May 28, 2018 8:08 am As of 2017, Cobalt was producing over 2,000 boats per year in its Neodesha facility.
That's roughly 5 1/2 boats a day.
To get to 10,000 they'd only have to do around 1/2 a boat a day over the last 50 years. So I'm thinking well north of 10,000.
Between 2006 and now your talking over 24,000, probably close to 30,00. Add the previous 35 years and I could see that number hitting 50,000.

Okay, you need to be in on this. Drillers numbers, Tuscanys polished fortune telling bowling ball, and your picks.
Bingo. Were gonna be RISH!!

Re: How many Cobalt’s?
Jeesh. Anytime someone starts talking about a little profit to be made and everyone wants in!.
Okay B, your in. Now hush and eat your chicken dinner.
Hell, let's just all get in and split it up!
Nauti gets a bonus for every Cobalt found with a grill mounted on the swimdeck. And BB gets paid for every 2 speed wench.

Re: How many Cobalt’s?
I of course was way off in my estimate. However, as a group we were in the ballpark!!
