Just ordered the Sony head unit which is really a must. Holding off on speakers for now as this stuff is likely to sit in a box for the winter.

Yea that's a nice upgrade. I just have to figure out how to get it to auto connect the Bluetooth correctly. I have not played with it enough. The Sony app on your phone is a must.

Ok BB, I'm finally caught up... When i popped back on the board a week or two ago I was like, ""BB got a new boat"?

Congratulations again! I got a baby coming any day now so my free time is very limited. Just pulled my boat on Saturday... very sad day.

At least we have the forum to get through the winter. You name her yet?

Liquid congrats on the baby!
No name yet :-) really have not thought of one for it. I really like this boat she might be a keeper. It's crazy fun to drive and that's what I've been looking for.Yes mine is parked for the W in my garage so it's playing around time now. Installed the shiny bling yesterday.long winter ahead. Can't wait to try these babies out. I'm almost tempted to go and rewinterize it.lol

Those are beautiful. Super jealous you get to park in your garage. I need the space for the trucks up here in western NY.

I told my wife that I wanted three things when we were shopping for the new house last Spring. a Pool, a finished basement and a three car garage for the boat... guess who got none of these things? The kitchen is amazing though :(

That's funny. I have all your wishes but the pool. Can't complain. When we built the house it had too fit at least a 26ft boat. So I'm good for now. No way would I keep the boat anywhere else. If it's a hassle to use it won't get used. So we made it hassle free. Next step hopefully will be on the water.

I keep the boat at the house in the summer months - May and June it's at the lake house and then there's 6 weeks that my aunt and uncle are at the house and I pull it. Usually schedule a trip to another lake during that time - but the winter kills me that i can't go out in the garage and tinker.

Getting ready to store it in a heated pole barn for cheap. $12/foot or something. I guess the new baby will have to fill the void.

Thank you very much. It'll be our third boy.

Now I just wish the little animal would get here already, He's been giving out false alarms for a week straight!

The wife is extremely pleasant and soooo patient with everyone right now :shock:

I've been looking at letters trying to figure out a name for the boat.

Those props are great.

I sent somebody your way from the other board regarding the yellow boat not sure if they reached out.

I haven't done anything yet but I did notice my "T" is cracked on the starboard side... It's fine and only I would notice but I'm insane and i want to replace it.

Might add new stereo BB recommended when I get it but otherwise nothing. I take her out of storage tax day and then spend the next few weeks detailing the @#$%&* out of her. There's a reason that 2002 looks like it just rolled off the boat show floor...

I am looking to upgrade the 6.5" speakers. Does anyone know the speaker depth specifications for a 2006 Cobalt 200? I can't find them anywhere online. I'm leaning towards some MB Quarts with the blue LED lights.

I bet those chrome registration decals will look great. Be sure to post some pics when you get them on!
