Owner Experience Review
Owners gravitate to the R6 OBfromCOBALTas a family day‑boat and social runabout, routinely highlighting its roomy cockpit, convertible backrests, and the ability to seat up to 14 for easy entertaining. The layout supports casual cruising and weekend raft‑ups, with a comfortable helm and plenty of cupholders/USBs that make long days aboard straightforward.
On the water, feedback consistently notes a confident ride: the hull feels substantial, runs relatively flat in chop, and tends to glide across the surface rather than plow. Published sea‑trial data with outboard power reports top speeds in the mid‑40s mph and practical cruise numbers in the high‑20s to mid‑30s mph, depending on rpm and engine. A minority of owners mention some bow bounce above roughly 30 mph in medium chop, so trimming and weight distribution may require attention in those conditions.
Fit‑and‑finish is often praised, but several owners of newer boats have reported regressions, especially on some 2023 examples—issues cited include gelcoat cracks near the tower/gunwale, loose fasteners, and trim/electrical glitches. Electronics problems (audio, depth and tank indicators, cameras) also appear in owner threads, with some noting long parts and service lead times. Experiences vary by boat and dealer, but prospective buyers should assess build details closely and clarify service expectations.
