2005 Cobalt 360

The Cobalt 360 Performance Cruiser brings to market all the amenities of a cruiser coupled with all the performance of a sport boat. Equipped with dozens of standard features and buoyed by an options list that ranges from air-conditioning to a global positioning system / radar in a single unit, the 360 arrives with a carefully tuned hull ready to take on big, rough water. The 360 incorporates classic styling with the long, clean lines that have defined Cobalt design for 30 years. Forward, there is a windlass with a Delta anchor. A walk-through door waits at the transom, with a concealed boarding ladder. From bow to stern, all the Cobalt standards are present: stainless steel windshield frame, bow scuff plate, stainless steel bow rail, and transom storage. The cockpit is a study in comfort and convenience with removable 40-ounce carpet, an ice chest, a double table, an ice maker, a sink running hot and cold water, a cabin door with a screen and, for an extra measure of usefulness, a 110-volt outlet. The instrumentation is comprehensive and aircraft-quality: a compass, a depth gauge, temperature gauges for air and water, an hour meter, and a trim-tab indicator system. The design of the dash carries some nice surprises: zero-effort engine controls and Waterfall Bubinga wood with all of its eye appeal and durability. In the cabin there is a table and a berth (mid-cabin), a refrigerator / freezer, a stove, a microwave, and a fiberglass head unit with a shower. The 360 has made provisions for big-water missions with Volvo big-blocks Twin stern drives with 420 horsepower.
