Last Updated
The ChefsMate A10-803 and Cabo A10-703 are rectangular marine gas grills. Both list a 9 × 18-inch primary grate and 304 stainless construction. We have not tested them side by side.
Quick Verdict
Their listed cooking areas are the same. Compare construction details, boat-mount fit, weight and current total price rather than assuming one is a round kettle.

The Contenders
Category Breakdown
Cooking area
Winner: DependsBoth models list a 9 × 18-inch, 162-square-inch primary grate. The ChefsMate is rectangular, not round.
Construction
Winner: DependsMagma lists 304 stainless steel for both. Its specifications describe a double-lined bowl for the ChefsMate and a single-lined bowl for the Cabo; we have not tested the effect on cooking.
Weight and fuel
Winner: DependsMagma lists 14.5 lb for the ChefsMate and 11.81 lb for the Cabo. Both use gas; check the correct regulator for the intended fuel setup.
Mounting and cost
Winner: DependsBoth include folding tabletop legs. Boat mounts are separate; confirm the specific mount and compare the current total installed cost.
Final Verdict
These grills share the same listed main-grate dimensions. Differences in construction, weight, mounting and price are more useful decision points than the previously claimed shape difference.
Buying Advice
Verify the A10-803 and A10-703 model numbers and region-specific regulator before purchase.
