2027 Cobia 245 Center Console

The 2027 Cobia 245 Center Console is a 24-foot fiberglass fishing boat built around a single Yamaha F300NSB gasoline engine, rated to handle up to 350 horsepower. The hull features Cobia's signature dry ride design with optional Seakeeper Ride system for smooth cruising. Powered by a stainless steel GEM steering wheel, trim tabs with indicators, and Helm Master engine controls, the boat balances responsive handling with fisherman-friendly engineering.

The layout divides naturally between fishing and family comfort. The cockpit pairs a helm seat with integrated tackle station against hideaway aft bench seating and fold-down transom seating for crew. Forward, the bow offers cushioned seating with folding backrests and removable insert, shaded by an optional sunshade. A hardtop with integrated frame and glass windshield spans the helm station, fitted with JL Audio stereo and eight white speakers. The 245 includes a console with fresh water sink, electric head with macerator and port window, boarding ladder, fresh water washdown, raw water washdown, and transom fresh water source.

Fishing amenities are comprehensive: two 35-gallon insulated fish boxes with macerated overboard drains, a self-bailing cockpit, tuna door, and 30-gallon livewell. Stainless steel through-hulls with seacocks sit below the waterline, while seven heavy-duty pull-up cleats and a cockpit toe rail provide secure rigging points. Gunnel rod holders, under-gunnel rod storage, and a dedicated tackle storage station complete the working deck. A Garmin GPSMAP 1243xsv paired with GT36UHD and GT12M transducers handles navigation and fish finding.

The boat is finished in pure white with two-tone hull pattern and white powder-coated hardtop. Comfort features include USB outlets and cupholders throughout, a side dive and dockside boarding door, and forward console access door. The covered boarding ladder and fully recessed bow rail round out the package designed for both serious anglers and family recreation.
