Self-Bailing Cockpit & Livewell
Self-Bailing Cockpit
The cockpit is designed to be self-bailing, meaning that all
the water that comes into the cockpit will be directly
drained overboard. This keeps the boat from acquiring
standing water and allows the boat to drain at all times,
including while the boat is docked.
Water drains out of the cockpit through two aft cockpit
drains located at the far aft cockpit floor on both the port
and starboard sides. Each side drains overboard through
the side of the hull independently. None of this water is
drained into the bilge. The ball valves are located behind the aft seating. Refer to page 12
for operation of the ball valve associated with this system.
The bilge is designed to drain any water entering the inside of the hull. All hoses are
sealed and double clamped during construction. Continuous or periodic running of the
automatic bilge pump may be an indication of a hose leak or break in a seal and should
be investigated by a Cobia Dealer immediately. Refer to page 10 for further information
regarding bilge pump operation and maintenance.
Livewell System
The livewell system is designed to keep your
baitfish alive and strong for as long as
