Harman Kardon

integrated into the boat. Aesthetically colour-matched to your interior gel coat and acoustically tuned, the system is specifically designed for the R33’s cockpit and cabin geometry.

Seakeeper

Introducing Seakeeper for Cobalt, the industry’s best-in-class gyroscope, eliminating 95% of boat roll. Internally, a flywheel spins at speeds of up to 9,750 revolutions per minute, producing a powerful gyroscopic torque that counteracts boat roll. After initial start-up, the flywheel will reach full operational speed within 15 minutes. Then your Seakeeper can be engaged and disengaged instantly. Gone are the days of seasick guests and spilled drinks. It’s a luxury you never knew you needed but will soon learn you can’t live without.

Side-entry door

Boarding has never been so effortless with Cobalt’s new side-entry door on the starboard side of the boat, enhancing sterndrive convenience and storage. The hull side door is brought to life and reinforced with an additional bulkhead. And the heavy-duty hardware ensures years of trouble-free use.

The Helm & Cockpit — Designed for Command and Convenience

The R33 Sterndrive puts the Captain in complete control. A dual Garmin 8610 Glass Cockpit display provides high-resolution navigation, instrumentation, and networking through an intuitive touchscreen interface. With an optional upgrade to the larger Garmin 8612 screens and Garmin Fantom radar, greater capability is at your fingertips, perfectly complementing the sterndrive experience.

The helm features an extra-wide seat, premium leather and a stainless steel steering wheel, a custom-stitched composite helm eyebrow and stainless steel switches throughout the gloss black dash console. The cockpit itself spans a generous 3.20 metres wide, with Varadense Comfort seating and a dual sundeck convertible lounger that transforms the stern into an expansive sunbathing platform. For entertaining, add the optional solid teak dinette table, cockpit galley with electric stove top and a cockpit heater for year-round boating comfort.
