Mercury is the first choice for Cobra

Published on: 03/06/2015

APV Marine Ltd, based in Dorset, is the sole designer and manufacturer of the highly respected and stunning, hand-crafted Cobra Ribs.

For the past 30-years, Mercury has been the engine of choice for a number of the Cobra models. The early Cobra 7.5m models were designed around the weight and power delivery of Mercury’s V6 OptiMax engines including the 200, 225 and 250hp. With the introduction of Mercury’s supercharged Verado range, Cobra designed their models around the Verado 6-cylinder, 300hp engine in either a single or twin installation. Each Cobra is bespoke to individual customer requirements from the entry-level 6.6m through to the flagship 10.6m model. “We believe we are unique in offering a genuine family adventure Rib, fusing together great performance and on-board accommodation. Cobra has always chosen to have a partnership with Mercury due to the product quality, the performance characteristics and the worldwide support network,” comments Josh Arkell, Operations Director, Cobra Ribs
