I have been a boater nearly all my life. However, I recently purchased my first boat -- 2007 Cobalt 220 (more on an upcoming post) with a dual axle trailer.

I bought my boat from Kathy at San Ramon Boat Center at the Lake Tahoe location at Sunnyside. Fantastic! First Rate. I highly recommend them...

I then proceeded to put 35 hours on the boat while in Tahoe.
