For a boat of its length and beam, the single-engine 296 jumps on plane with noteworthy suddenness. With two engines, the word is 'launch.' That said, the ride here is hushed, soothing, and soft, much like the 296's interior, with a layout here that is both custom - from throw pillows to club configuration - and unlike any other bowriders. A space more limousine than marine. The comfort accumulates astern in all-weather, personalized luxury straight out of your living room. Wraparound conversation is waiting in the bow.

Introduced in 2009, the sleek lines of the Cobalt 296 only hint at the uncommon luxury found within. From the textured vinyl upholstery to her sporty woodgrain dash and leather-wrapped steering wheel, the 296 makes a quality statement few other bowriders can hope to match. Instead of the usual wraparound seating, the double-wide helm and companion seats in the 296 have reversible backrests that become aft-facing recliners. (The optional wet bar behind the captain's seat eliminates the starboard recliner.) An enclosed head/change room with sink and PortaPotti is behind the port glove box, the twin aft sun pads lift for engine access. Note the L-shaped lounge and forward-facing seat in the bow area. Standard features include a walk-thru transom, air compressor, extended swim platform, thru-stem anchor system, premium sound system, molded-in gelcoat graphics, bow scuff plate, and trim tabs. Built on a Kevlar reinforced hull with moderate beam, the Cobalt 296 is available with several single or twin engine options.
