Robalo Boats redesigned its 246 Cayman and launched the allnew R230 for the 2024 model year. Among the updates for the 246 Cayman (24’ 6” LOA, 9’ beam) were a new deck design, additional seating options and stowage.
Twin insulated livewells in the cockpit along with a 50-liter carry-on cooler provides options for cold storage and rod storage solutions. A fiberglass hardtop and aluminum-framed windshield comes standard on the R230.
The 246 Cayman stands out as the perfect choice for adventurers seeking both offshore excursions and leisurely coastline cruises. Its kevlar reinforced hull, combined with the innovative Hydro Lift™ multi-angle design, ensures precise maneuverability while guaranteeing premium comfort on every journey.
What sets the 2024 models apart is the incorporation of upholstery material crafted from 100% SiO Silicone, a revolutionary innovation in marine seating.
Power for the R230 is a single 250-hp outboard from Yamaha Marine.
