New Member- New to us Cobalt 282

Post by Cl2202 »

Hello from Kansas. Excited to join and gain some Cobalt knowledge! We just purchased our first Cobalt, a 2003 282 with a VP 8.1 GXI and 454hrs. Waiting on our Heritage trailer to be built so we won't be able to bring her home until probably February. Don't have any great pictures yet. Just some on the lift when we did a demo.
Thanks!
Chris

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

Great pic. Gotta love the classic red scheme. Post a pic of your new trailer when that’s delivered too.

Again welcome aboard mate!

Welcome! Good choice on the boat and the Heritage trailer

Small world. I lived in Clearwater for a short stint back in the mid-90's. Nice little town.

We plan to spend most of our time on Grand Lake with possibly a trip to Table Rock or Beaver Lake. My Father-in-law is 8 miles from Milford Lake in KS so we'll make at least a trip up there as well. Can't wait!!
I grew up around boats but this is our first one as a family. We're all excited but it will be more so when we get to bring the boat home and have it parked in our shop!
