Research 2012 - Chaparral Boats - 246 SSi

If you seek the thrill of adventure, the relaxation of getting away, the pride of quality and the luxury of comfort, our all-new 246 SSi flagship is everything a super-sized family bow rider should be and much more. The goal here was seating capacity and the 246 more than delivers in a big way. From the deep contours of the reclining bow seats to the wide open feel of the U-shaped aft couch, the 246 is the ideal mix of elegance and unleashed family fun. Boat of the Year for 2011? We wouldn't be surprised. Engine options from 260 to 320 horse propel a boat that can tame big water yet is cat-quick to plane, rock-solid in the midrange and exciting at top-end. Sporting a full list of standard equipment, the 246 lets you select from an options list that includes snap-in carpet, bow filler cushions, a swim platform logo mat, Premium bucket seats, a sound system upgrade, Driftwood interior and a wakeboard tower.
