Standard Equipment

CAPOFORTE CX250i — STANDARD EQUIPMENT
Exterior & deck

The current specification lists the following as standard:

Personal White hull
Cognac upholstery
Stainless-steel handrails
Stainless-steel bow roller
Anchor with stainless-steel folding hardware
Bimini top
Front sunbathing area
Retractable/swimming ladder
Cockpit storage

Cockpit

Standard equipment includes:

Large aft sofa
Convertible aft sunpad
Convertible helm seat
Cockpit storage
Cockpit shower
Cockpit cushions
Bimini
Forward sunpad

The extendable rectangular teak table is an option, rather than standard.

CABIN — STANDARD

The CX250i's major advantage is its interior.

The standard package includes complete cabin equipment, with:

Forward living/dinette area
Convertible sleeping accommodation
Cabin storage
Separate sleeping area
Head/WC area
Shower facilities

The CX250i has one main cabin in current listings.

Important: electric WC

The current equipment list specifically puts the electric toilet in the options, so I would not assume the standard boat has the upgraded electric WC.

ENGINE / PROPULSION

The "i" in CX250i is important: this is the inboard/sterndrive version, rather than an outboard boat.

Current engine choices include:

Volvo Penta V6 250-CE-K
Volvo Penta V6 280-CE-K
Mercury 250 hp gasoline

The Capoforte factory specification gives 280 hp maximum permitted power.

The sterndrive arrangement is a significant part of the CX250i's design: Capoforte says it increases usable onboard space and keeps the engine installation visually unobtrusive.
