Hey A712. Welcome to the Cobaltchat forum. So glad you found us!

Did you do any boating in Tahoe? You’re so right. My wife and I loved jet skiing on that lake.

Any pics?

Again, welcome aboard mate!

I finally got my cobalt! In 2005 my family and I bought our first boat, a 2005 crownline 206ls with the 5.0. It was a great boat and gave us many years of enjoyment. Other than occasionally wanting a little more space, our old boat was perfect for our local lakes.

Recently, my wife and I purchased a place in Lake Tahoe, this is where the old boat really struggled, so the quest for a new boat was on. I always wanted a cobalt, but in 2005 it just wasn't in the cards. Now I would finally get the boat I wanted. I looked at the R3, R5, and the CS23. I loved all three but ended up with the CS23. I really like the way it sits in the water and love al the storage compared to our old boat, in fact I think I can disassemble our old boat and stuff all the pieces in the new boat. It was delivered to Tahoe on Wednesday, and I actually got to watch them lift it into the water. I've attached a few pics so you know it really happened, lol!

I love it! Congrats on the beautiful boat!

We lived in El Dorado County for two decades and had a condo on the water in King's Beach(Brockway Shores) for many years until April of 2018 and have lots of amazing Tahoe memories including every 4th of July vacation for 11 consecutive years.
Wow! The water is the only way to watch the fireworks, a boat is the best seat in the house, especially if its a Cobalt, or a 50’ yacht :lol:

I am also a new member, and just bought a place on the west shore of Tahoe with a deeded buoy....so I will be buying a Cobalt for the 2020 season! I am very familiar with the brand, but was never an owner as we were a dedicated water ski family (private ski lake) with a Mastercraft slalom boat. I am trying to get up to speed on the new Cobalt models...enjoying the forum. I know that Frank/Cathy are no longer at Sunnyside or Rocklin but will figure it out with the new ownership.

Hey Carrera (Porsche fan?🤔). Welcome to the Cobaltchat forum. So glad you found us!

Any pics of your Mastercraft? Great machine. Sounds like you’ll have a rockin’ setup with Tahoe and a future Cobalt.. Love that lake. Which model are you considering?

Looking forward to more of your posts. Welcome aboard mate!

Yes I used to be a Porsche owner, so I have used carrera as an online name on many different boards. We had a 2003 X7 (basically a ProStar 190 with a tower and ballast tanks), but sold it last year...no more skiers in the house. As a dedicated ski lake boat, it had a ridiculously low number of hours.

I am considering an R7 for Tahoe.

We had a late model Porshe Panamera in our drive way a couple weeks ago. I wanted to drive it, but my brother had to leave real early in the morning. He liked it better than the Audi R8, which I did drive.

Welcome from Arkansas. Love your boat. We almost bought the same, but got the R3 cause we're old and liked the rear seating.
