For more than forty years, Cobia boats have enjoyed the reputation as being dependable, seaworthy and thoughtfully designed vessels. Founded in 1958, Cobia was acquired by Yamaha Marine in 1994 in line with the latter's efforts to expand its product offerings. Cobia is a recognized manufacturer of center consoles, coastal decks, walk-arounds, and Yamaha outboards. The company also has a long history of building fiberglass boats. Like many other independent boat manufacturers, Cobia has experienced many challenges in its more than 40 years in the business. The company, however, continues to emerge stronger out of these challenges and its association with Yamaha promises to give it long-term stability. The key feature behind all of Cobia's models is the application of its SeaTech System, a state-of-the-art process that maximizes hull integrity. Cobia also uses foam injection to reduce noise and vacuum-formed reinforcements for improved stress distribution. Likewise, Cobia boats feature a corrosion-resistant electrical wiring system and premium gel coats for long lasting color retention. Most importantly, Cobia boats are powered by factory-installed Yamaha outboards. Customers can rely on Yamaha engines for reliability and durability. They will also appreciate Yamaha's extensive nationwide dealer network. Cobia boats are also covered by a comprehensive ten-year warranty. The Cobia products are ideal for various water activities with the family including fishing, cruising, or skiing. Needless to say, Cobia boats make boating fun and comfortable for families. Cobia builds over 20 different models including the three specific deck boat models: the 256 Coastal Deck, the 236 Coastal Deck and the 216 Coastal Deck.

"Cobia 274 Center Console" Once upon a time, avid fishermen considered Cobia boats to be price-oriented, family runabouts — not something to be taken seriously for fishing. Over recent years, the company’s mission has been to dramatically boost quality, build a true offshore-capable fishing boat and change the consumers’ ''price-boat'' mentality. Mission accomplished. And before you say, ''But this isn’t a new boat,'' let me explain that Cobia has redesigned and retooled this boat from stem to stern. Nothing remains from the old 27.
