Thanks for the information. I pick up my 2021 R5 on Friday. I got same mooring cover that you have.

Pick up my 2021 R6 next Friday...looking forward to the new boat!!!

Hey bashohio...welcome to the Cobaltchat forum. So glad you found us!

Yes be sure to post pics on delivery day. Are there any options you did not get? How is she powered?

Again welcome aboard mate!

Thanks all....

Will post picture after delivery. Ebony/Frost Slate combo

350hp - decided against getting 380/400 more power, since we mostly will be on river/small lake cruising, know the 350 will be enough
It has most options, electric step, air compressor, electric head, docking lights, windlass anchor, arch, wood accent etc

Congrats. Can you give some details on sonar? Dealer installed or factory. Looking to do the same on my R7

I just went with the standard Dual Garmin 742 XSV - don't need the large screens.

Garmin the best system on the market based on my experience, plus my buddies who have way more "boat" then I have...

My favorite color combo.. GOOOOOO GATORS!

Looks Great!! Love the trailer color.

Looks fantastic! Congrats on the new boat and enjoy the heck out of her!

The dealer installed the module... it is simple plug and play. My original request when ordering the boat was to switch to the .sxv version of the Garmin 7607 (7607.sxv). This version has the sonar capabilities built in... thought I'd just get one and leave the other as a straight 7607. Garmin, however, suggested that we install the GSD 25 Sonar Module instead as it gives the capability to both screens. It really works well with capabilities that rival my dedicated Lowrance GPS/Sonar on my fishing boat. Love it! Here is a link to the module: https://buy.garmin.com/en-US/US/p/133800

I make boat covers and I used to tow with mine on all the time. I stopped doing it awhile ago. I am not really worried about the boat as much as the life of the cover.

Not so much but that makes it more fun....

Did they need to also install a transducer or just the module? Thanks, I have been searching for this answer for a while.
