OPTIONAL FEATURES

Waste Removal Fitting, Top

Optional Salt Water Washdown

Salt-water washdown is an option on your new Cobia. The pump is located in the bilge forward of the livewell pump and is 
accessible through the splashwell hatch or the aft port hatch. To operate, hook a hose to the raw water receptacle in the aft 
section of the rod locker. Flip the switch labeled “Saltwater”. The pump will pressurize the system with raw water. Once the 
system is pressurized, the pump will shut itself off with an internal pressure switch and will switch itself back on as you 
demand water. Be careful to only spray gel-coated fiberglass surfaces with saltwater and avoid all other areas. Always rinse 
your boat with freshwater as soon as you return to the dock or home if the boat is being trailered. 

Waste System

A portable head unit is an option for your new Cobia. The instruction manual can be found in the Cobia duffel bag and basic 
operating instructions are listed on pages 22-24.

The optional head pump out fitting is located on the starboard side of the console. With this option, waste can be removed at 
an approved dumping station without removing the tank from the head.
