Vessel Walkthrough:

As you step aboard the 2021 Cobia 262 Center Console from the integrated swim platform, you immediately notice the stability and generous beam of the boat. The transom door opens into a wide, uncluttered cockpit built for both fishing and comfort. To port sits the large 29-gallon livewell with a clear acrylic lid, and at your feet are the two oversized in-floor insulated fish boxes—perfectly positioned for offshore runs and easy cleaning. Coaming bolsters wrap the cockpit, and rod holders line the gunnels, giving the entire aft deck a purposeful, offshore-ready feel.

Moving forward, the leaning post becomes the centerpiece of the helm area. At the helm, the modern black acrylic dash provides a clean, modern look, with room for large Garmin multifunction displays. Yamaha digital controls, stainless GEM wheel, trim tabs, and easy-to-read gauges all fall naturally at hand. Above, the fiberglass hardtop delivers shade, integrated lighting, and rod holders, adding capability and polish to the design. The 360° view from the helm underscores the confidence this boat inspires on the water.

Just ahead of the console is a comfortable forward-facing lounger with thick cushions and an insulated cooler below—ideal for guests riding along. Step up into the bow, and the personality of the 262 shifts into a family-friendly social zone. U-shaped seating wraps the front of the boat, complete with removable backrests and deep insulated storage beneath each seat. This space serves double duty as a lounging area at anchor or a casting platform offshore, depending on your day’s plans. Stainless grab rails and cupholders are recessed throughout, keeping the layout clean and functional.

Access to the console interior is through a wide, side-hinged door at the helm. Inside, the surprisingly spacious compartment includes a marine head, freshwater sink, and additional storage. The headroom is ample, and the finish is clean and easy to maintain—excellent for family comfort during long outings.

Walking back toward the stern, the layout remains open and easy to navigate thanks to the wide walkways and thoughtful placement of grab handles. The aft seating can fold away to provide more fishing room, or fold out to accommodate guests when cruising or anchored at the sandbar. Every inch of the deck feels solid underfoot—true to Cobia’s vacuum-infused construction—and the boat maintains a sense of confidence whether you’re preparing gear, hosting friends, or heading offshore.

From bow to stern, the 2021 Cobia 262 CC offers the perfect blend of performance, comfort, and fishability. It’s a boat where every feature feels intentionally placed, and the walkthrough leaves a lasting impression of balance, capability, and thoughtful design.
