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
vales are located inside the hull sides and can be accessed through the bilge hatch. Refer
to page 13 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 11 for further information
regarding bilge pump operation and maintenance. A diagram of the Water Drain system
can be found on page 43.
Livewell System
The livewell system is designed to keep your
baitfish alive and strong for as long as possible.

steps should be taken:
1. Open livewell hatch.
2. Install stand-up pipe snugly.
3. Ensure livewell pump ball valve is in open position.
