Sweet boat. I can picture it already

No Phender clips or flag? Why did you go merc over Volvo? Really both great choices!
No Captains Call so I won't want to buy this is 10 years. That's too bad... It has everything else I want!
That's funny I was just thinking were getting closer to our new to us boats in ten years too Nauti

Welcome and congrats on the new boat! Gonna be a sweet summer for you!
I see you are from Louisville, KY...welcome neighbor...we are in the area too! With the Boating Center closing up shop, did you deal with Stokley's in Lexington?
Where do you boat?
Break it down for us...what are all the new boat details!
We purchased our 220S from Stokley's and yes ordered the new one through them as well. Couldn't be more impressed with them and their customer service. Top notch dealership. We have a float house on Lake Herrington, and have a covered slip at The Cove there at Herrington
We are Dale Hollow boaters... With that new beauty you need a little more lake so she can run!

It's so hard find someone to order the exact boat we want, take excellent care of her and then sell it to us later!

Sounds like a great R5, can't wait to see pics of it! Is Cobalt going to send you build pics as it progresses? I think I remember them doing that for others who ordered boats.

Cycle - Welcome. Can't wait to see the new rig. What kind of trade are you getting on that 17 220 to cut into that 138? Let's see pics of the 220 in the meantime to see if we can help find her a happy home.

Here is a picture of my 220S I dropped off today at Stokley's. Even though the R5 isn't estimated to arrive until middle of May, they went ahead and took mine today to get it reconditioned, detailed, and ready for sale. I owned the 220 for 18 months, purchased August of 2016. Put about 45 hours on it.
