I've owned a 23SC since 2018 and can honestly say it's the best handling boat I've ever owned. This is the outboard version. I upsized to a Mercury Verado 300HP over the standard 250HP and it has more than enough power. It's quick to plane and I've had no issues pulling my adult sons up on a slalom ski or wakeboard. Although I spent the first five years on Squam, I moved to Winni for the last few, having secured a rental berth at Meredith Yacht club. My 23SC has a head, shower and ladders fore and aft, swim platform, ski pylon and the tower bimini. The bimini is easy to lower when needed, especially in early spring when the water levels are high and bridge clearance may be an issue. Due to a change in lifestyle, we've decided to take a break from boating and I've placed the boat up for sale. The boat has very low hours - approximately 300 - and extremely clean. It's been professionally maintained every year. It also comes with a tandem axle Venture custom trailer. You can see a link to the boat here:

Pricing is always "negotiable"!

Good luck either way, but definitely give the Cobalt Boats a serious look.
