The R4 Outboard boat has a sleek, lower profile, putting you closer to the water and making it easier for trailering and storing. With its state-of-the-art hull designed specifically for outboard engines, it delivers an extraordinary boating experience for lake, river, and salt-water recreation.
Bow storage secures and organizes life vests, anchor, or other equipment.
Find a polished stainless steel top surface cap to windshield frames and enjoy the brightwork look the windshield possesses—all crafted to reflect heat in the sun and be cooler to the touch.
A ridged mounted tower with stretched canvas provides good shade coverage for the cockpit. Additional pull out aft sunshade for extra coverage to rear seating. Unique top available on outboard models only.
Features & Innovations
Interior
Feature-rich and versatile, the R4 Outboard’s spacious interior accommodates over a dozen of your family and friends with plenty of room for gear. Classic Cobalt quality and a wealth of options provide you with a smooth, standout ride each time you take to the water.
Adjustable to 3 positions—face forward or face aft, when not in use it lies flat extending the sunpad. Stainless-steel handles add security in rough waters all supported by a heavy-duty steel hinge mechanism.
Create more lounge area in the bow and transom seating with Cobalt factory-made filler cushions. As with all Cobalt seat cushions, you get total composite seat-base construction.
Harness the dependability, durability, and capability of Garmin at your helm with our feature rich, high-resolution glass cockpit. Advanced navigation, networking and instrumentation technology combine with an intuitive interface to meet the needs of any captain.
