Hi everyone !! We recently purchased a 2011 Cobalt 262 and I'm not sure why we waited so long to join the club. Been around boats for years but haven't owned one in a long time. We started looking earlier this year and the lack of used boat inventory made the search a slow process. Thru this site and others I narrowed down the list 2 brands with Cobalt being on top. This boat came on the market one night in March and I saw it the next morning and was sold on it within minutes. After waiting weeks for the survey it was ours and we've gotten out a few times already - including today.
I appreciate everyone's feedback and suggestions on the posts as it really helped me learn about the brand and lifestyle we are embarking on.
Here are a few pics from today's "work day"....
