New member, Southern Illinois '95 252

[tgrace98]

Welcome from St. Louis/Table Rock lake. Nice pick up! now lets see some pictures of it!

[Ytmsn]

Welcome from Oklahoma! Congratulations on your 252 and welcome to our mostly functional Cobalt innerweb family. Thunder in AZ has a mid nineties 252 that is the bomb and I'm sure he'll be willing to geek out with you. He has a big thread in older boats on his restoration.

And yes, we need pictures, or this intro self-degenerates quickly and gets severely derailed.

Hey, so glad you found us, brownsugar.

Can’t wait to see pictures.

Welcome aboard mate!

Welcome from California!

Sharp looking!! Trailer bunk wheels are something to get used to but I’m sure you’ve been schooled on launching her.

Wouldn’t happen to be a 502?? I see black. Look forward to hearing about your new endeavors and as Ytmsn said , you’ve got great company here.

Welcome!

Where in Southern Illinois? I grew up there....just curious.

Welcome from Texas BS. Glad to have you onboard. Looks like that boat is in great shape for a '95.

Welcome from Indianapolis,IN. This is a great group you've found and looks like you've got a great boat!

Here's a few pics... Not crazy about the green, deciding on if I want to change it to dark blue or black with vinyl.

Another welcome from Texas. I really like the color; but to be fair, I am a little partial to green.

Bless you.

That was great. For Some reason we abbreviate everyone's names here. I'm sure this will stick. I'm sure some of are full of our share of BS

Welcome from above you. WI.

Congrats!! I love the green! I wasn't crazy about my teal when I first got it but it sure looks sharp and unique all shined up. I say give it some time and see if it grows on you.

I've pretty well been through my boat and trailer top to bottom, if there's anything I can help with as you get into yours let me know.

Welcome to the family!

That was just the first day

BS dont get down on yourself, Thunder does that to all of us. HE'S the one that's not normal here. He's part animal, part machine, part engineer, part mechanic and a freak of nature.

I bet everything on his desk is perfectly aligned and in place, and I would take great pleasure in coming in his office at least once everyday and moving something or everything just to creep him out!

I wish it had a 502.... Lol.... Just a 454

A little town about 25 miles east of St. Louis called Mascoutah.... Born and raised there, prolly die there

Been there—grew up between Marion and Carbondale

Move anything you want, as long as it's not one of my 3 screens! When those get uneven I lose my sh*t

BS, you're good bud! I've had a year to get into mine.
