That's the plan with one small exception. I'm going with two-colors on the new interior and I am going to use navy piping between the 2 colors only. The hull of the boat is Navy blue and I wanted to bring that color inside the boat. There will be very little of it. I've also found a place that will embroider the Cobalt logo in a couple of the vinyl panels. This is similar to what Cobalt does in their newer boats.When I had the seat redone in my 230 We.my upholster guy made a suggestion to eliminate all the piping which really up dated the look.
Very nice! I'm waiting for my vinyl to arrive so we can get this started....View attachment 53369 View attachment 53370 Here's the before and after
Jester, I barely have time to work on the boat and I'm doing 99% of myself. If I had to stop and video everything I would never get finished. And I have given myself a date of April 12th to have it finished.Impressive. I really like the old Cobalts. The Engine looks pretty new?
I can see it's a small block but that's about it.
What a great boat.
You should do a YouTube of the restoration.
I know I would subscribe.
Will do.... But you could possibly see it in person. I grew up in Seattle and have been boating most of my adult life, 50+ years. In Seattle we grew up with Unlimited Hydroplane racing. I recently discovered that Hydro Fest will be on Lake Guntersville in late June of this year and I am planning to come up for the races. I am the administrator of the Cobalt Forum, Club Cobalt and I am trying to organize a meet that weekend with some other members from the area. It would be great if Club Cobalt and Club Sea Ray members could raft up or something.Well it's really nice.
I can certainly understand the "Stop and Video" thing. It is time consuming, especially if you want to do it right.
Keep us posted, and when you get it out there, take a video of you hauling A$$ on the lake.
That would be cool.
I can do the drone Ron but I have to learn to fly it better before I take it over the water. Don't want to splash the wrong toy.LookING great Shawn. Nice touch on the embroidery! Amazing how gremlins emerge after a few months.
I expect drone, no, HELICOPTER video of this boat while underway! Good luck!
