Behind drivers seat through a hole, the best I remember from getting to the one on my son's old boat. It was a pain to get the seat off, I think the bottom unbolted as one unit then some screws in...
I have a single console 201 if you still need pictures I could take a few just let me know. I am in the process of replacing some rotten stringers and transom but the top cap is still sitting on the...
I found out about the problems when I had a trailering accident that seemed to be very little damage and took it to a fiberglass shop for an estimate and to have it checked out. They found a soft...
I had it on for 975.00 but I think it is sold as of about 10 min. ago. Guy hasn't picked it up but says he is on the way. Great deal as I had 1500.00 in it.
I have posted here before about my 201SC when I was looking to install a new jack plate asking what size was best. I went with the 12" Atlas and it was excellent, however two weeks later I learned...
Yes I am removing the top cap currently at that stage of things but slowed down by the weather and other distractions. I will most likely post some photos in the restoration section when I get into...
Due to a what seamed to be a small accident I had my Cobra 201sc looked at by a fiberglass repair shop and learned that my boat had water intrusion and that the transom was not structurally sound....
My son posted some new pictures of his 201 on the Waco Craigslist.
My son is in a position that he must sell his Cobra it is a 98 with a newly rebuilt Mercury 200 efi. He has it listed on several different web sites including Craigslist out of Waco Texas a lot of...
Thanks super dork I have already look at your project and will take another look. Other projects like yours makes this a little less intimidating for sure, kind of waiting for a little cooler weather...
I will start taking photos when I get back to the project later this week and document the whole process if possible. Never happens in perfect conditions, you know blue skies and 70deg, only when it...
I think you are correct, my son and I both have Cobras and we really love the boats but this is no fun. I am in the process of cutting the top at the back to remove enough to reinstall the transom...
Thanks CastingCall that's where I am at right now. I am a little unsure about cutting the top cap and making the repairs when I put it back on. At least on my boat there isn't much flake on that area...
I am in the process of repairing/replacing the transom on a 201SC Cobra that was damaged in a towing incident and have a few questions before I get to far into the process. I had decided to use...
I have heard the same from another owner that had to cut the foam by going thru the rod boxes with a homemade tool of some kind these are the type of things that make this project so sketchy.
Due to a accident on the highway my Cobra is in need of some repair including a new transom my question is about removing the topcap on these boats. I have removed a deck on a couple of other brands...
I have a 12 Atlas on my 201SC runs much better than with the 8" it had when I bought it.
I didn't have any problems with cables or fuel, oil lines everything had slack to spare it was a very simple install. My boat had a 8" to start and it only took me a couple of hours to install the...
Just wanted to post a quick update to the 12" jack plate on my 201sc, been running it for a couple of months now and love the results. The boat gained a little on the top maybe 2 or 3 mph at best but...
I,m running a 25p tempest on a 201SC, 12" Atlas Hyd. Merc 225 hole shot is good with a full load and two people it tops out at 70 or so running about 2.5" below pad with light load and me alone it...
I just installed a 12" Atlas Hyd. on my 201S with a 225 and had no problems with cable lengths or other issues. With all the rain in Texas this month I still haven't ran it yet, but I will soon.
Thinks for the input I ordered a 12 Atlas hydraulic today and I will post the results after I run it for a few trips.
I am Sec. of the Meixa TX bass club we only have around 30 active members so that is a large share of Cobras. The price of the hydraulic plates do make it hard to not by a manual and just be happy...
Thanks for the the reply and information I will look again at the old post and see what I can find. We have 5 Cobra 201's in our small bass club and all have 8" plates which work fine. Since I need...
