2018 Chaparral 257 SSX
About This Yacht
The 2018 Chaparral 257 SSX is a 25-foot fiberglass bowrider powered by a Mercruiser 8.2L V8 engine delivering 380 horsepower. The boat features a deep-V hull design that produces a smooth and stable ride across varying water conditions. It reaches a maximum speed of 57 mph and cruises comfortably at 25 mph. The beam spans 8 feet 6 inches, accommodating up to 14 passengers with a fuel capacity of 65 gallons and a dry weight around 4,700 pounds.
The layout centers on versatility and entertainment. The helm area leads to a spacious forward seating zone, while the aft section features power-adjustable lounge seating that converts between forward and rear-facing configurations or extends into a sunbed. A power-folding arch with integrated wakeboard racks organizes watersports gear and lowers for trailering. Extensive storage throughout the boat keeps the cockpit uncluttered. A fully enclosed VacuFlush head provides private onboard sanitation.
The boat shows exceptionally low use with 17 original hours and has been stored indoors, protecting the finish and components from sun exposure. Power delivery comes through a DuoProp Bravo III drive paired with the V8 powerplant. A Carrier tandem trailer is included with the sale.
