There is a fairly rare Cobalt Corsican Splash/Clone knock-off for sale in Somers Point NJ.
The yard owner claims that everyone is afraid to touch it with a ten foot pole because it has balsa core actually in it's hull & bottom !
Did Cobalt in fact use balsa core wood in their hull sides & bottoms ?
I thought some have said that Cobalt built a quality boat ?
Not so,~~~ in my oinion, if it indeed used a balsa core in it's hull !
What a re-core nightmare this would be !
My older friend, who actually looked at it, says that much of it's bottom now sounds "dead & hollow" !
He also says the aft bottom sounds waterlogged & heavy !
I did not see this boat first hand myself .
The Cobalt decals are still on this boat !
Cobalt GT 500 ?
Cobalt was sued by Donzi for building these direct rip-off clone/splashes~~~
They were soon forced to stop buiding them !
I doubt many were built ?
This boat now has an inline Chevy 250 Cu.In. six cylinder; with one transom exhaust outlet plugged-up with a big wooden plug !
What a poor set-up for a once V8 powered performance boat !
The Corsican's sporty Euro-style deck is fantastic !
