Cobia
220 Center Console
2016–Current
What makes the new 220 CC so great? Maybe it’s the sharp forward entry, large bow flare and variable deadrise hull that makes it ride better than a lot of bigger boats. And what about the hidden rear seat with flip up backrest and battery storage underneath? Fishing features include twin 30-gallon fish boxes and a 15-gallon livewell with LED lighting positioned under the leaning post. Add removable forward bow cushions for seating or a forward sun lounge. Huge 30-gallon storage compartments are insulated and drain overboard drains for fish storage or onboard cargo. A special floor compartment is perfect for a 5-gallon bucket and a casting net. An aft bench folds away for wide open transom access while fighting fish. The starboard swim platform features a telescopic ladder that stows out of the way in its own compartment. (Manufacturer Provided Description)
EDITOR NOTES: Pop-up cleats are a nice touch. T-top has an electronics box. Most have been powered with a single 150hp Yamaha (40 mph-plus top).
