Description
The 2010 Cobalt 296 is a luxury performance bowrider that seamlessly blends power, style, and comfort. With an overall length of 30′ 2″ and a 9′ 5″ beam, the 296 was designed to feel as spacious and social as a much larger boat, while still handling with the nimble precision of a sport runabout. Cobalt’s Kevlar-reinforced hull and 21° transom deadrise deliver a smooth, dry ride even in choppy conditions, making this an ideal platform for entertaining, water sports, or relaxed coastal cruising.
This particular 296 has been kept on a covered lift, sparing her from unnecessary exposure and ensuring that gelcoat, upholstery, and canvas remain in excellent condition. With just 328 hours on her Volvo Penta 8.1L 400 HP engine, she has plenty of reliable life ahead and is truly turn-key ready.
Performance & Handling
The single Volvo Penta 400 HP powerplant delivers strong acceleration, crisp handling, and a comfortable cruise speed for long days on the water. Cobalt’s deep-V hull design is known for its exceptional tracking and stability, giving this boat the confident ride of a larger yacht without sacrificing sportiness.
