Hi All I just purchased a 1999 200 in great shape. I don't know what series it is and hope someone can shed some light on that. It has the Mercruiser 5.0 efi. with an Alfa drive.

Hey GB. Welcome to the Cobaltchat forum. So glad you found us!

Any pics of your new acquisition? You’re going to make some amazing memories on the water. How will you be using her?

Again welcome aboard mate!

As my user name states, we own a Grand Banks that we keep on an island in the Ca. Delta in the summer. We have grown out of our 15' Whaler so the Cobalt was the logical choice. I saw this one listed on Craigs List yesterday and cut the check this morning. I'm very interested in finding out what performance I can expect, speed cruise and top, what wheels (prop's) are others turning on these 5.0's.

Welcome. Congrats on the new ride. What Wheel is on it now. No pictures no boat.
I would say you will be close to 50mph. A high five might work nice on it. Or a merc Enertia prop. I don't know if you will be able to spin a rev 4.

Pic's

Sorry still trying to post pictures

Welcome also from the California Delta! I’m glad you picked up a great model as you’ll be zipping to hot spots , and parking will be improved!
Looking forward to some pics as we will look for you out there!

Let me see if this works

Looks like a fresh glass of wine, spinal wine that is

I don't know what spinal wine is but I do believe the color is Bordeaux. And yes I purchased it in Napa.

I'm thinking it might be the color of your boat. Nope it's Bordeaux
Close. Cheers anyways.

I had no idea until I google “ Spinal Wine “ how savvy you have become on the subject

Great looking Cobalt GB!

What ever. Wrong manufacturer and of course spelled wrong.
