What Makes The Cobalt Surf System
Volvo Penta Fwd
Forward-facing propulsion designed for performance and safety. The system pulls the boat through the water for smoother acceleration, better efficiency, and a quieter ride.
Surf Controls
Simple control at your fingertips. Pre-set profiles automatically adjust ballast, speed, and wave direction so you can focus on the ride.
Hard Ballast
Fine-tune your wave for different riders and conditions. Adjust ballast levels based on passenger load to dial in the right shape and size. Ballast tanks do not apply to the R33 Surf and R35 Surf.
R26 Surf Interior
The R26 Surf interior features wraparound seating, increased storage, and an optional head compartment for added versatility. Designed for comfort and functionality, the layout supports days on the water while maintaining a spacious and open cockpit.

The two-tone steering wheel combines premium materials with a distinctive, modern design for a refined look at the helm. Thoughtfully crafted for comfort and control, it complements the sophisticated styling of the cockpit while adding a premium touch to every drive.
Bow Filler Cushion
The bow filler cushion transforms the bow seating area into a spacious lounge, creating more room to stretch out and relax. Designed to integrate seamlessly with the surrounding seating, it adds comfort and versatility for days spent on the water.

Dual Garmin touchscreen displays provide control of navigation, surf settings, and onboard systems through a clear, responsive interface designed for ease of use at the helm.
Head Compartment
The head compartment includes a step-down entry, skylight, and standard Porta Potti, with available upgrades like a porcelain toilet, pump-out system, and sink console for added convenience on the water.
Full Color Deck
The Full Color Deck option allows for extended gelcoat color from deck to upper hull, creating a more cohesive exterior design. Available across select Cobalt Surf models, this feature offers expanded customization with multiple color options for a refined, uniform appearance.
