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!
So you're saying it'll never grace the muddy waters of Cheney. 😂🤣

LOL!! I wouldn't say that necessarily! As close as it to us I'm sure it'll see some time in Cheney. Plus we have lots of friends that go out there. Where do you spend most of your time?

Got the "new to us" 282 home a few weeks ago from LOTO. Love the new Heritage trailer. I know, truck doesn't match the boat. LOL

Cheney. We can be on the water in 30 mins. If you see us out stop by.

We will have to keep an eye out for you as well. Most of the time Cheney is our lake of choice. Can have the camper setup and boat in the water in 45 mins :). We had ours on the water briefly on Saturday. Did a few reverse circles in the ramp area. Had the shifter cable replaced over the winter and it wouldn’t go into forward. Guessing they put in too long of a cable as there was no more room to adjust it.

The 282 is one of my favorite Cobalts. The deep hull and weight make it ideal for rough water. Enjoy!
