The Cobra 850 is a versatile and well-designed 28-foot sailing yacht created by renowned designer David Feltham and built by Cobra Yachts in the UK. With its classic monohull configuration, this vessel is ideal for coastal cruising enthusiasts seeking a dependable, easy-to-handle yacht. Featuring a robust white GRP hull, non-slip deck, and GRP superstructure, the Cobra 850 delivers both durability and performance. Its lead-encapsulated bilge keel and skeg-hung rudder provide enhanced stability, while the tiller steering offers a traditional sailing experience.
The yacht's specifications highlight its readiness for sailing adventures. It is powered by a reconditioned diesel engine with approximately 250 hours, coupled with a shaft-driven fixed propeller for reliable propulsion. Onboard systems include 12V and 220V electrical setups, shore power capability, and a Sterling battery charger. The yacht's rigging, renewed in 2005, features a sloop configuration with aluminum spars and stainless steel standing rigging. Sail inventory includes a slab-reefed mainsail, roller-furling Kemp genoa, storm jib, and a spinnaker, providing versatility in various wind conditions.
Accommodations onboard cater to comfort during extended stays, featuring two berths in the main cabin, complemented by a double and a single berth arrangement. The interior is finished with medium wood joinery and refreshed teal upholstery (2022). The galley is well-equipped with a Techimplex cooker, double stainless steel sink, and a Blaupunkt music system for entertainment. Deck equipment includes a plough anchor with chain, mooring warps, and a sprayhood, while navigation aids like a Garmin GPMap 78 plotter and Raymarine autopilot enhance sailing ease. This Cobra 850 stands out as a well-equipped, dependable yacht perfect for both new and seasoned sailors.Dimensions Details
