Cobalt 246

This is a great boat for Lake Lanier. Our family and freinds have enjoyed over a 100 hours of fun, but we are moving to a much smaller lake. Some of the many options are: Captains Call/Silent Choice Exhaust (!Sounds Awesome!), Dock Lights, Dual Battery, Power Engine Cover, Bimini Top, Bow and Cockpit Covers, Swim Deck and Driver side remote controls for CD/XM Stereo, It has lifetime XM satellite radio. Just had the 100 hour service per Cobalt specs by a certified Cobalt technician. All the upholstery is in excellent shape except for the rear deck shown in the pictures.From Cobalt:Like all the Cobalt models, the 246 looks like it's in motion even at the dock. A combination of common sense engineering, abundant creature features and good old solid boat building technology has gone into the 246. At just 24'6" she has a roomy beam of 8'6" giving her the feel of a larger vessel.All of these comforts ride on an exceptional hull design derived from years of boat building experience. After running the 246 I had to find out how they got a boat to handle this well. So I found a Cobalt on a trailer and crawled under for a look. The first thing I noticed was the large reverse chines and the absence of the inner planning strakes from the windshield aft. This combination, coupled with a 20-degree deadrise, allows the vessel to drop into the waves smoothly without banging in most situations. To top it all off because of the large reverse chines she had a dry ride with no water hitting the windshield. The U-shaped bow seat has padded bolsters below the deck line so your guests can face each other and lean back in comfort. Both seats have additional storage below. Cobalt has managed to install a head (toilet) compartment behind the port bow seat back rest that is accessible by opening the port console aft. The compartment is small for a large person but still large enough to close the door for privacy. A self-contained camper type toilet was installed having the holding tank in the base.The seating arrangement in the cockpit area consisted of two pedestal chairs and an L-shaped lounge across the back and up the starboard side. Under the aft seat was storage extending beyond the seat area to below the step and the corner seat section on the port-side. Cobalt also installed the battery selector switch in here for easy access. But this puppy also has a wet well with drain under the port seat just begging for ice and cold drinks. Cobalt calls them Flip-Lip seats. What they've done is, for lack of a better description, double hinged the forward half of the seat to rest on top of the aft half creating a bolster seat so you can see over the windshield. There is also an adjustable helm to make it really comfortable in all driving positions
