About This Adventure

Let us show you how luxury should be done.

Our 36’ Cobalt A36 Bowrider is an industry-first, combining the luxurious comforts of a coupe-top design with the practical features of a bowrider. Add to that a fully equipped cabin that features a master bedroom V-berth and full restroom, and you’ll see why the Cobalt A36 stands out from the crowd. The electronics features are top-notch on this yacht, including an upgraded stereo package, pop-up TV, and underwater LEDs. It even has a hydraulic swim platform allowing guests to get in and out of the water with ease. And, with a removable full Eisen glass enclosure, this is another great three season option. (13 Passenger Max).
