1999 Cobalt 293Sold

Step aboard and you’ll feel right away that this 293 has been loved, not just used. The cockpit layout is pure Cobalt: deep, secure freeboard, wide companion seating, and a sun lounge that actually fits adults without feeling like an afterthought. The helm sightlines are excellent whether you’re on plane or easing into a tight slip, and the deep-V hull gives that solid, quiet ride Cobalt is known for. Below, the cabin is surprisingly generous for a 29-footer, with real stretch-out room on the V-berth and enough headroom to move around without hunching. It’s the kind of weekender that works equally well for sunset cruises, overnights, or an impromptu swim day with friends.

This 293 is particularly well suited to the mix of open water and protected bays you’ll find here. The substantial hull weight and pronounced deadrise handle afternoon chop with confidence, yet the boat still planes quickly and cruises efficiently with the twin MerCruiser setup. Generous freeboard and a secure cockpit keep crew dry when conditions kick up, while the swim platform and transom layout make it easy to enjoy quieter coves and sandbars. With its comfortable cabin, you can stretch a day trip into a relaxed weekend aboard without feeling cramped, making this Cobalt an ideal all-rounder for local cruising, anchoring out, and long, scenic runs along the shoreline.
