Has anyone seen or heard of someone adding a grill to a 242? I am interested in trying this. Let me know. 2010 year.

I'm installing a rockford radio but when I'm done I going to use the the Magma grill deck connection for an umbrella.

Problem- plastic threads

I forgot that was your thread. Good to hear you're still doing well.

We just have this little Coleman grill that fits on the 242 table. Cooks dogs in about 10 minutes. Fits 4 burgers. Fits in small Cary bag with 2 propane bottle holders. Beats soggy subs any day.

If you don’t have a grill out back, how will you cook up the fish you catch?

I actually enjoy seeing the different ways people use their Cobalts. One guy converted his into a luxury dive boat, which had not occurred to me but certainly caught my attention.

My 263 has a transom 'grab bar', parallel to the swim platform. So, I attached a clamp on rod holder to the grab bar, which stays in place 24/7.

When its time to cook, I haul out the Magma rod holder mount/filet table

This allows for a stable platform for either my Weber Q or my Coleman 2 burner gas stove (not a big fan of using the stove in the Cabin). Both store easily under the deck, forward the engine bay.

YMMV.
