Cobia 280 DC
The family offshore boat, solved.
The 280 DC is what happens when a serious offshore builder designs a family boat: twin Yamahas, a hull that's genuinely happy in the ocean, and a layout with bow seating, a real head, and enough storage for a beach day that turns into a fishing day. It's the biggest dual console Cobia builds on the classic hull, and it's a Delmarva natural.
We're the dealer Cobia has scored #1 in customer satisfaction for the whole brand — twice. A 280 DC from RT 113 gets rigged, sea-trialed and delivered by our own crew, and our Yamaha Pro Elite shop keeps it running for as long as you own it.
