    First boat is it worth it?

    Also that price is in CAD not USD so it’d be around 25k US.

    First boat is it worth it?

    Thank you all for the responses and honestly I was kind of getting that feeling. Honestly I love it for the look. And because it’s a v8.. I know it’s a lot for a first boat. But it’s what I want. I want something at least 23 feet and has to be a 454 of bigger. I’m a v8 guy. No I don’t want an...

    First boat is it worth it?

    Hello all. My name is Jordan. I previously posted a thread about buying a Liberator with a damaged KC outdrive. Thanks to your responses I steered clear. Now a few weeks later I have found another boat I’m very interested in. The seller sent me tons of videos and even was willing to water test...

    Okay, that’s what I’m talking about. So yes you think this boat isn’t something obviously that can be fixed easy.. and the boat itself isn’t a nice boat (built well in general)?

    Yes I saw those! The Cobalt is beautiful, honestly is an old man, and he owns a successful mechanics shop. He said he bought the boat and got sick and couldn’t use it. Where he is, it’s very far on the outskirts kind of “back country” honestly it’s almost as if there is no GPS to get there so I...

    Thank you, I actually did read up on that thread. God you guys are smart! I’m a mechanic and I’m pretty hands on. I also have a dreaded 6.4 powerstroke that everyone told me to run away from because they were junk.. so I’m thinking in my head this is just another case like that, that I can maybe...

    Hey! Thanks for the reply, when you say powered by, do you mean the engine or the outdrive? And why do you say a no go if not powered by either or?

    Thank you for the reply, much appreciated. Where are you located? For $5k I figured trailer and engine were probably worth around that much considering it’s swapped to electronic ignition? and I’ve just been reading and reading on horror stories about how hard it is to service or get parts for...
