ith so many center consoles being built today, it can be difficult to choose. Cobia’s focus on delivering quality and value has made it one of the top-selling center console manufacturers in the country for boats 26 to 35 feet. Its largest model, the Cobia 350 CC showcases a host of standard features, multiple engine packages, and extensive options to enhance both fishability and comfort. The Cobia 350 CC is built to ABYC standards by Maverick Boat Group in Ft. Pierce, Florida. It has a double-stepped vacuum-infused hull and premium fade-resistant gelcoat. All composite (no wood) construction increases strength and durability. Manufacturer performance testing with optional triple Yamaha 300-hp F300XCAs yielded an eye-popping top speed of 62.3 mph. Cruising at a more realistic 33.4 mph (3500 rpm), fuel burn was 26.2 gph or 1.27 mpg, demonstrating that the boat can get you to the fish or the party with speed and efficiency.

Standard features include twin 42-gallon bait tanks, large fishboxes below the floor that pump overboard, a bait prep area and tackle storage, including a secure rod locker below. The 131-square-foot cockpit is ideal for fishing with enough room for multiple anglers and easy access to the boat sides and foredeck. Options include twin Garmin 8616 MFDs with CHIRP sonar, a hardtop with rod holders, an Optimus joystick and a Lenco Auto Glide System. The 350 CC has a cabin with a berth, head and shower, triple helm seats, a sun lounge forward and an electronically lifted bow table ideal for appetizers and cocktails. Comfort options include air conditioning, a refrigerator and a Seakeeper SK2 gyro. “The Cobia 350 with optional triple Yamahas is fast, smooth riding and has excellent handling,” says Rich Gotlund of Basa’s Marine. “It has plenty of bow seating and is remarkably dry underway. Packed with features, this boat is ready to fish or cruise.” H
