    Cobra 180 Restore

    I bought this boat about a month ago and it was in desperate need of some TLC. I replaced all the carpet and seats, batteries, new on-board charger, new Fortrex trolling motor, and put a little bluewater bling on it. It was a fun little project and I think it turned out great.

    Before:



    After:















    New Boat Seat Store seats. This is the new color scheme.






    Now I just need to wetstand, polish, and wax and she'll be good as new.

    Had some decent weather this weekend and took it out. I could get 65 out of it with just me and 1/2 tank of gas. I haven't checked the motor height out on it yet but it looks low to me.. I should be able to play around with the jackplate and get a couple more mph out of it.
