206 wanted, which power?

[billLO]

Looking for a 2000+/- Cobalt 206. Please let me know any for sale. Hoped to find one with the 300hp 5.7 Alpha. Would appreciate any input om which power train combinations are best. Want to have plenty HP but also plan on keeping the boat for a long time so I need reliability. I will be doing any maintenance or repairs so I'm a little scared of the dual props.
Thanks,
Bill K.C.

I just bought my 226 from this dealer. They have a very nice 206 for sale 350 MAG Alpha 1. I also used a local SAMS marine surveyor to inspect. I could set you up with if wanted. http://www.gulllakemarine.com/pre_owned_detail.asp?sid=066383X3K5K2011J4I40I12JPMQ2901R0&veh=1828006

bear,
I called on that boat at Gull Lake a couple weeks ago. At that time they had a deposit on the boat. That boat was perfect, I will recheck. What is the SAMS marine survey you mentioned?
Thanks,
Bill

Hi Bill,

I had and accredited SAMS marine surveyor inspect my Cobalt before I purchased, so I had no surprises...
