The Cobia 261 CC is the latest offering from Cobia and puts a premium on style, fishing performance, and family comfort. The 261 CC (26’1″ LOA, 9’3″ beam) is ideally proportioned with every inch maximized. The boat has plenty of cockpit space (83.5 total square feet), whether behind the deluxe tackle station with premium helm seating or in front of the forward entry console with huge step-down head area. Split bow seating with optional forward-facing backrests allows for access all the way forward to chase those big ones that head for the horizon or to easily retrieve the anchor, and the deck is level from stem to stern.
Additional smart, practical features include trouble-free access to the batteries under the helm seats and a huge bilge entry door that lifts electronically with the touch of a button. All hardware is backed with laminate plates, and there is generous bilge access with electric lift assist. The easily deployed rear bench seat makes converting from a fishing machine to a party boat as easy as stowing the rods in the ample rod storage. Powered by twin Yamaha 150-hp outboard engines, the Cobia 261 CC runs to a top speed of 50 mph.
