11/28/2023 0 Comments Cobalt boats reviewsCobalt designers reimagined the swim platform with its innovative swim step, which functions much the same way a “swim out” does on an in-ground swimming pool. When facing aft, the sunpad is wide enough for two and looks over a swim platform covered with Sof-Track mat. The rear bench backrest has the same design cue, with a folding backrest for facing forward or aft. It’s also wide enough for two, but only one of the passengers can put his or her feet up. The observer seat, which is wide enough for two adults, features a backrest that flips forward to create a rear-facing lounge. That spaciousness opens up all aspects of the cockpit. That, in turn, creates 95 inches of interior beam space in boat with 102 inches of overall beam. Its design creates less of an intrusion into the interior space than traditional wraparound glass. In the cockpit, Cobalt’s blade-style windshield is key to the spaciousness of the interior-not that the cockpit needs any help. The blade-style windshield Cobalt chose for the R7 not only looks good, it boosts cockpit space. And because it’s a Cobalt, those armrests are through-bolted in place. Both seats feature gently angled back rests for exceptional ergonomics, and folding armrests. For those who prefer to lie in repose, they can sit to starboard where there’s a traditional bow lounge. However, the seat offers bow passengers a place where they can enjoy the breeze and the best view yet still keep their feet on the deck. To the starboard side Cobalt uses a little jump seat, with a filler cushion that converts it to a lounge. The bow area also feels plenty spacious due to its seating arrangement. That keeps the forward-most bolster nice and wide, too. Cobalt accomplishes that by keeping the bow area as wide as possible as far forward as possible, and by using the narrow space at the very front of the boat for an anchor locker. Like the R5, the R7 eschews the current trend toward pickle-fork or wide bow designs and offers up plenty of room with a traditional bow. Cobalt has had no shortage of new models these past few years.
