We're sorry to see this one go but check out some other options below.
This is a very well kept, low hour CHAPARRAL. The black hull is 99.999% flawless ( estimate ). Beautiful. Also equipped with the solid tower which is foldable.
ONLY FLAWS SEEN : there is no "zip up" sleeve-cover for the canopy. There is a 1" section of the CHAPARRAL emblem missing from the right side of the hull. (see picture) There is a 1" scratch on the starboard side above the water line that I believe can be buffed out.
The 227 SSX is considered the benchmark boat in the Chaparral's upscale sportboat series and she's designed to compete with luxury bowriders while still coming in at a competitive price.
To fill that mission, she comes equipped with two coolers, convertible seating, a portable table that can be installed in the cockpit and bow, a premium stereo, a depth finder and a Bimini top with front wind-screen.
Stern-drive power is a 6.2 liter MERCRUISER with a BRAVO Three twin prop pusher........this boat surges cross the waters. She powerfully gets on plane and seems to float upon the water.
This 227 SSX has a good sized swim platform, ( see pics ), which is deep enough fore and aft. The ladder, in its own locker, is aft to starboard.
The port side cushion flips up to create a starboard facing chaise-style lounge. Underneath that cushion is a removable 25-quart cooler.
There's draining storage under the center cushion and the hinged starboard pad folds up to provide easy passage to the cockpit. Finally, there's storage beneath a hatch in the walkway.
From the stern walkway, passengers step down into the 227 SSX's cockpit, which gives the area a secure deeper feel. L-shaped seating wraps around to port and there's a multi-position backrest for the forward section.
It can be set for a co-pilot to sit up facing forward or laid down to create a long flat lounge. Across to starboard, there's a single seat abaft the driver.
Cockpit Storage.
All the cockpit lounges have storage in the base and there's a molded draining compartment beneath the forward bottom cushion. There's padding in the bottom of the ski and wakeboard locker that you can get to by a hatch between the driver's and co-pilot's seat.
Additionally, the port console has a glovebox up top and a hatch in the bow passageway opens a compartment that's big enough for duffel and gear bags.
The Helm
The 227 SSX's helm has a simple, upscale feel with the hand-wrapped darkly upholstered eyebrow over the multi-function gauges. Accessory switches are in two columns outboard on each side.
The digital hour meter, depth gauge and power-assisted tilt steering all come standard in every Chaparral 227. The driver's seat has a fold-up bolster for sit-down or stand-up operation and it swivels and slides fore and aft.
The Bow
Moving forward into the 227 SSX's bow, the passageway closes off with a lower door and the center section of the windshield.
Having the ability to keep wind from entering the cockpit lets owners in northern climates extend their season.
The bow comes standard with forward facing lounges and there's a mount for the portable table. Additionally, owners can add the optional filler cushion to create one large pad.
Bow Storage
Outboard beneath each removable cushion, there is carpeted storage in good sized lockers. Beneath the bow cushion is an insulated cooler that drains directly overboard.
On the 227 SSX's foredeck, a locker houses the beach ladder and anchor in the same compartment.
The deck is molded with slots for the ladder to lie into. Fold it out and the anchor is secured with clips so it hangs instead of banging around in the locker.
Includes a very high quality POLK audio stereo with SIRIUS and quality speakers.
McClain ALUMINUM I-Beam trailer is a virtual lifetime trailer. Bearing Buddy grease caps. Perfect tires.
You will not have to invest a penny in repairs....the boat is that nice.
Warranty
Limited Lifetime Hull Warranty has provisions for transferring coverage and includes limited cockpit upholstery, canvas, components, gelcoat and blister protection.
This CHAPARRAL is a low hour boat. ALWAYS stored under cover. It is kept in a steel barn with snap-on cockpit covers. NO FULL BOAT COVER, but it isn't needed. The boat is stored on a clean, coastal hay farm and is fully enclosed at all times.
The seller keeps this boat spotless.
The only "negs" I noticed on the boat are (1) part of the CHAPARRAL emblem on the rt side is missing a 2" piece of chrome. I think most people would never notice it, but I did take a photo for you so you can see what I mean.
(2) there is a 1" scratch on the left side ( in pics ) which I think can be buffed out without much effort at all.
Other than these two items, I cannot say anything negative about this boat. It is really clean and cared for.
May include transferrable warranty
