1998 Cobia Boat For Sale ( Sport Deck Boat)

1998 Cobia 226 Sport Deck Boat For Sale.
22-6 (26 overall with outboard)
200 HP Yamaha Saltwater Series II, 2-stroke, oil injected +/- 500 hrs

Great family boat with lots of storage! Excellent condition. We are the second owners and purchased in 2000. The original owner purchased the boat in Georgia and shipped it to Northern California. It was used a few times in saltwater and then it’s been freshwater (Mohave and Powell only) since we’ve had it. Cobia is known for their center console fishing boats, and you usually only see their deck boats on the East Coast. This is a great lake boat and would make a great bay boat, but we do not suggest using it in the open ocean—the bow sits too low at idle and it can take scoops in steep waves.

The engine runs perfect, very reliable. Wide open is around 42-44 mph. Great water skiing for lighter bodies. Nice wakeboard wake. There are two batteries with a switch, and a location for two more trolling batteries. There is a trolling motor plug pre-wired to the bow, where there are trolling motor mounts. There are fishing chair holes (2 in front and 2 in back). We don’t have a trolling motor nor the chairs. Great fishing boat, easy to walk around with the side doors.

Also a great camping boat. Room for bins in the “engine” compartment, and it can sleep 5 (on benches and floor). The bathroom storage compartment is clean, carpeted, and runs under the deck to the port side. Porta potty not included . . . unless we find it. The bimini is only pictured once but is included. It’s as old as the boat, but is sunbrella and all stainless steel (heavy!).

Brand new spare prop with all necessary hardware. Original prop and skeg in perfect condition. Front and rear anchors w/ 100’ lines included. Tires are old, but have been covered with no cracks. Boat has a 10-year-old cover (no rips) and tire covers. Been kept under an awning since we’ve owned it.
