Nice job or repairing the "dock rash". That's quite an undertaking - looks like it turned out well. You'll have to be extra careful on trailer depth so as to avoid that area rubbing against the trailer stop at the winch.
It amazes me how some people buy very nice boats (cars, planes, whatever...) and beat the hell out of them and/or don't keep them up. Nice to sew you keeping your Cobalt in tip top shape. I always like to see older boats on the lake that have obviously had owner(s) that really cared about the boat. I take great pride in my little 232, and hope to keep it for many years. Funny, but my Dad always kept his boats the same way - nicest in the marina (not necessarily the biggest, but...).

Thanks, it was really easy, a 2 oz bottle of spectrum gelcoat for $33 and about 2 hours of time, don't have to worry about trailer because i don't have one, its hauled to the lake by tractor trailer. same as your dad always working on it or something,

Nice work. Those look pretty mean - Mean & pretty.

I feel the same way about mine. It's not the biggest, newest or fastest, but find one better maintained for me.

One item I need to replace is my broken hour meter. I had my engine scanned, so I know the hours- so now it is going run off my battery for the next several days to get it to the proper hours.

Well I went somewhere today so here's my wishful next upgrade. It's only 1750 little ponies.only twin turbo chargers.
