Life on the Cobia 296: this boat has an extremely deep cockpit, the deck is level from stem to stern, and you're always ringed on all sides by tall gunwales that keep you securely inside the boat. As we begin casting I notice those tall gunwales are good for something else, too. They're at just the right height to lean up against without feeling like you could lose your balance and flip over the side, and they're lined with cushy bolsters. The down-side to those tall gunwales? More windage, a longer haul when you need to bring the catch in over the side, and you can't easily reach the water to rinse off your hands. The extra heft of the larger boat also, naturally, made it more comfortable in the waves. That's a given—when the waves are rockin' and rollin' there's no substitute for LOA and displacement—but my comfort level on the 296 went up even farther when I heard the call of nature. If you're sick and tired of box-like center console cabins that make using the head a contorted, cramped chore, just take a look at this boat's head compartment. Seriously—take a look for yourself. I found it so roomy, I decided to shoot this video so you could lay your eyeballs on it up close and personal.
