2014 Cobalt Boats 276

Own the 276, a sure sign of certain success. With quiet achievement all around, here's a boat for the ages.

On the one hand you have all this elegance: classic lines flowing toward sea-level at the molded swim platform and its polished stainless, double-needle diamond stitchery on the upholstery, deeper colors in suede-soft vinyls creams and ivories and sands now, a dash arguably the most gorgeous ever to grace a Cobalt.

On the other hand you look overhead to an arch that is bold, edgy alright, its whoosh and swoop matched to that of the hull, a bimini top fusing high style and high performance. Then you sit in a bow that is actually elongated, but looking longer still, a walkway extending all the way to the windlass and, well, you're not sure if you've purchased a bowrider or a performance cruiser, if your 276 is subtle or something else.

Not to worry, a glassine cove waits just ahead. The one you love sits next to you, and you'll have time to decide. All the time in this sweet old world.
