Cobalt Boats: Unrivaled Quality Since 1968
Choosing the right boat – whether it’s your first boat, a new boat, a used boat, or your tenth boat – it is a significant decision and one that requires careful consideration of various factors that may include performance, design, and value for money, amongst many others.
But for those seeking the ultimate boating experience, there is one name that stands out from the crowd: Cobalt Boats. Established in 1968 by Pack St. Clair in Neodesha, Kansas, Cobalt Boats has been a leading innovator in the boating industry for nearly six decades. In this article, we’ll explore some of the compelling reasons why a Cobalt boat is the perfect fit for your next boating adventure.
Supreme Quality in every Cobalt boat
At Cobalt Boats, we’ve built our reputation on our uncompromising belief that quality comes before everything else.
Right from the start, we ‘placed a premium on meticulous construction and technical excellence‘ in the designs of our boats, which quickly made them amongst the best bowrider boats that money can buy. Some of our top compelling features in our boats include:
Cool vinyl
Cobalt quality runs throughout every boat we build, from bow to stern. You’ll find it in our opulent upholstery featuring Fresco Chil Vinyl, an anti-bacterial, mildew-resistant and sulfide stain-resistant fabric that stays a full 15-20 degrees cooler than traditional vinyl, even when exposed to direct sunlight.
Premium Audio
Thanks to our partnership with leading premium audio manufacturer Harman Kardon, our audio systems onboard Cobalt Boats include sophisticated technologies including time alignment and spectrum response, ensuring smooth audio coverage for everyone onboard. Durable components designed for the harsh marine environment guarantee years of audio pleasure on your Cobalt boat.
High-tech hulls
And you’ll find our hallmark quality in our engineering. Cobalt hulls are specifically designed for high-performance while delivering a safe, smooth and comfortable ride, whether you’re day cruising or hardcore water sports enthusiasts.
American Innovation
All Cobalt models benefit from Cobalt’s patents and other innovations that are unique to Cobalt Boats. One of the best-known innovations that you’ll find on our boats is the patented Surf Gate™ system.
Surf Gate™
Pioneered by our parent company Malibu Boats, the Surf Gate™ system utilizes a pair of high-speed hydraulically-actuated gates mounted at the stern, to create an endless surfable wave on either side of the boat.
Surf Gate™ has established its dominance in the industry, owing much of its guaranteed performance to our specially-designed Cobalt hulls. Our Volvo FWD powertrains ensure that you are able to effortlessly generate a world-class wave every time, easily rivaling some of the best competition towboats on the market.
Customization Options
When you order a new Cobalt boat, you’re offered a wide range of customization options, allowing you to create a boat that perfectly suits your needs and style. From the color of the hull to the upholstery and finishes, you can customize just about every single aspect of your Cobalt boat. With a Cobalt, you get a boat that is uniquely yours and one that truly works for your needs and your family.
Here are just a small handful of the customization options that you’ll find on a Cobalt boat when you order it new:
Choice of engine manufacturers
Unlike many other boat builders, we give you a choice of manufacturers for your boat’s engine. Choose from either Volvo or Mercruiser inboard engines as well as a range of horsepower ratings to ensure that you get the performance that you need, whether you’re out day cruising or enjoying watersports. Some of our models also feature outboard engine options from renowned outboard manufacturers Yamaha or Mercury, for added convenience and flexibility.
AutoDeploy Galley
Our AutoDeploy Galley is a particular highlight in the options list on certain Cobalt models. It incorporates everything you’d expect in a yacht-quality galley, including a sink, an electric grill and a microwave, surrounded by a solid surface countertop.
When not in use, the AutoDeploy galley is hidden inside the boat’s seating and at the touch of a button, elevates in less than 20 seconds, ready for use.
A full thickness cushion is atop the galley to ensure maximum comfort for passengers seated there.
Keep your food and drinks cool and fresh
Your local authorized Cobalt boat dealer will be happy to discuss other options with you for your new boat, including this: A built-in combination deep freezer & fridge. Featuring a 3.2 cu ft. capacity and an adjustable temperature range from 0 to 50 degrees, it’s the perfect means by which to keep your food and drinks cool and fresh.
Unrivaled customer service & ownership experience
Cobalt Boats is committed to providing exceptional customer service. From the moment you purchase your boat to the ongoing maintenance and service, Cobalt is there to support you every step of the way. With a network of authorized dealers and service centers worldwide, you can be assured of prompt and professional service, wherever you are.
But to us, you’re so much more than a customer. When you buy a Cobalt boat, you become a friend and a member of the Cobalt family. To help you keep in touch with us, you’ll gain access to our exclusive social media community. You could say it’s one of the standard features of a new Cobalt boat!
In our private Facebook group, you’ll be able to interact directly with other Cobalt boaters across America, whether it’s to ask questions, share weekend plans or just to enjoy one another’s boat candy.
For example, we recently enjoyed sharing in the adventures of Bill and Sharon Umberger (pictured above) who fearlessly undertook a several hundred mile trip across Lake Michigan. Their experiences have gone on to inspire several other Cobalt owners to plan similar adventures!
