~2017 Chaparral 216 SSi

~The Ultimate In Family Values

Turn low-key weekends into exciting adventures with a 216 SSi that delivers Chaparral innovation at its family bowrider best. Wide Tech™ engineering provides a smooth, dry and confident ride with more space in the bow. Stainless steel hardware, premium vinyl and molded recessed side panels add a touch of class and are engineered to last. A large Bimini, front windscreen, full height windshield and a hinged bow door combine for all season comfort. Time-tested Quad Radial lamination with Kevlar® reinforcement keeps the strength up and the weight down.

The most user-friendly bow design in boating features a forward anchor locker, retractable navigation lights and a flat non-skid walkway. Inside recessed speakers, hideaway drink holders, top-mounted rails and full height backrest cushions are a comfort plus. Add an optional filler cushion and the bow converts to a sunlounge. Everywhere you look there's cargo space including convenient lockers under the bow seats. Upfront you'll find one of two onboard ice chests. The bow ice chest is insulated and drains overboard. Need protection from a cool fall wind? Go ahead and tuck safely behind the full height windshield and protective bow door.

The port sun pad cushion easily adjusts into a chaise lounge. The richly padded sun lounge is ideal for stretching out and working on your sun tan. A versatile transom walk-thru keeps soggy footprints off the upholstery. Diamond Lustre non-skid means sure-footed movement bow to stern. Floor storage in the walk-thru keeps water sports equipment nearby when using the swim platform.
