Description

For sale is an extremely rare Cobalt 252/62 powerboat in the gorgeous optional Tri-color gel scheme.It’s classic Cobalt Navy
with a Citron yellow boot stripe and white hull. This special boat was custom ordered with nearly every option available
from Cobalt and has some fantastic custom add-on options as well.
You will not find another Cobalt boat optioned like this anywhere.
It has over $44k of added factory option when new. It is in excellent condition top to bottom and it really shows. It is sitting on a
brand new 2021 Venture dual axle trailer that is included with the boat. The 252/262 are the same boat. In 2007 & 2008 it was the
252 and rebadged to 62 in 2009. From 2007 through 2014 the model run was identical- Same weight, length, and width.

Below you will find 85+ pictures as well as a few quick videos. The weather was spectacular this past weekend so we went boating
on Lake Michigan and took pictures and videos! You will need to double scroll or the pictures will cut off. The videos are after the pictures.

We are the second owners of this amazing freshwater-only boat. It has always been kept indoors during the off season and had it's
annual maintenance performed.
The interior of the boat shows like new and the exterior is a mirror front to back. It has 348 hours on
it and we have all the original documentation as well as the Cobalt leather bag given to the original owner. This Cobalt is a luxury
performance machine that excels in all areas. It has seating capacity for 15 people and an incredible amount of storage throughout.

It was optioned with the impossible to find, top of the line motor upgrade available. The MerCruiser 496 HO 425HP 8.1L engine
($18,650 upgrade) and a Bravo 3X Dual-prop outdrive with stainless propellers. The base motor was a 300hp 5.7L engine.
With the 425HP HO motor the boat performs masterfully. It navigates choppy waters like Lake Michigan with ease, tracks precisely at any
speed, and has the power and torque to pull skiers and tubers effortlessly.
Overall it is 27' 7” long with the extended swim platform, and approx 31’ overall sitting on the trailer.
For the true performance enthusiast it is equipped with the extremely rare Corsa Captain's Call/Silent Choice Performance Exhaust
at the flip of a switch. ($4,861 upgrade) Select the exhaust to be completely unrestricted out the transom or down through the out-drive
into the water for a quiet cruise. There is nothing like the sound of a big block 496 HO motor through the performance exhaust. It sounds
quite different than the 375hp mag model. There are a couple videos below of this amazing sounding combo.

It is also equipped with Trim Tabs for the ultimate driving control. ($1,025 option)

The boat was optioned with a huge Factory Cobalt Stainless Bimini Top with Sunbrella canvas. ($1,810 option). It provides a very large
shade top that is quick and easy to open/close.
Up front it has the the bow filler cushions. ($535 option)

A chart-plotting color GPS ($1,675 option) makes Navigation a breeze while the gorgeous stainless steel docking lights option ($1,180 option)
make evening boating safer and easier. The automatic fire extinguisher also adds piece of mind on your boating days.

It took us years to find a Cobalt setup this way with all the major upgrades. You will not find another with the 425HP 496 HO motor, Captain's
Call performance exhaust, Trim Tabs, GPS, docking lights, Bimini top, and the list goes on and on. This boat must be seen to fully appreciate
how it is
equipped and all it has to offer. Including some fantastic add-on options that set it apart from the rest.

The boat has custom made decking on the rear swim platform and the walk-through. Not only does it look fantastic, but it’s stain resistant
and soft as cotton. It is an anti-slip surface and grips bare feet/shoes when wet. This is the same decking you can option on larger brand
new Cobalt’s and high end vessels. ($1500 add-on)

Underwater RGB controllable LED lighting below the rear extended swim platform makes for an amazing glowing pool for night
swimming and a beautiful glowing afterburner effect when cruising. ($2500 add-on) Also added were RGB controllable stainless steel
cup-holders, RGB trim rings and all RGB controllable interior lighting. ($1200 add-on). Choose any solid color, or fade between colors
with a helm mounted controller. This all makes for a fun and awesome evening glow. See pictures below.

The head on this 262 is upgraded as well. It has a pump-out porta-potti ($875 option) and a portal light window ($650 option). A light,
fans, and paper holder adorn the compartment. It is an extremely spacious head for a bowrider this size.
The boat has both the bow and cockpit Sunbrella snap covers that are in excellent condition.

The boat has an upgraded stereo, all RGB controllable LED Marine Certificated speakers with RGB trim rings for an awesome anytime effect, a
digital helm Stereo remote that allows the driver to control the stereo, as well as a Transom Stereo remote in the rear of the boat.

Touches of class and quality are everywhere. All stainless steel hardware, hand stitched interior, Italian leather wrapped sport steering wheel and
a courtesy remote fob that lets you independently turn on the interior and underwater lighting from a distance.
The Dinette Table option ($875) is great for food, cards and drinks and stows away in seconds. A freshwater transom shower is fantastic for
rinsing sandy feet, water toys, jackets, etc.
($595 option)
