New Cobra Fish 'n' DiveXF

[Starvinmarvin]

Check out the link below and download the PDF for a view of Cobra's redesign on the Cobra Fish 'n' Dive, it now comes with 6 flush mounts as standard, 4 for the paddler and two for their passenger riding jump seat. Loads of flat area for accessories, looks great.

Impressive stuff. If I can find the space I can see a fleet building up over the next few years.

G'day

 

Ha! XF - that'll be a play on Malibu XF actor then!!

 

Hope they've done something about the hull slap

Had the "Navigator" nice Yak, but yes, noisey.

Centre of gravity a bit high too.

Moved well on the water though.

Nice Yak....shame about the graphics!!!

 

That type face should be banned worldwide!...apart from that it looks well specified and a good effort all round...front end might be slappy with that curl....

 

..nice to see developments though from different manufacturers.

Hi Art,

Brush strokes eh

If anyone is thinking of getting that FishnDive XF I hope they are only going out on flat water. Too braod in the beam, too much flare on the bow, be a bugger to paddle against tide and wind.

The freeboard is such that it will be VERY unstable - because you are sat too high. So, to overcome the instability they put on more beam - to the point where you have to be Schwartanegger to move the thing - paddle angle is all wrong because of the beam. Nope, not impressed.

Looks good on paper. I wait to be corrected on the water.
