Boat ownership experience

My children, 13 and 10 at the time, begged me for a boat until I finally succumbed and bought this Chaparral 265SSI eight years ago. В I went looking for a boat that was big enough for a family of four to fit on comfortably, big enough to handle the worst weather that the Chesapeake Bay could throw at us, and big enough for the four of us to comfortably spend weekends on. However, I also wanted a boat that didn’t throw off too much wake to ski or tube behind.

After several months of research, I realized that the Chaparral 265SSi was the perfect boat for my family and had everything we were looking for. not too big and not too small В Ever since, a majority of our most memorable family times have been on this boat. В For the past eight years, we’ve spent every long Memorial Day weekend rafted up with friends on their boats on the Wye River skiing, tubing, cooking out and just enjoying our friends’ company. a tradition we will miss dearly. В Four can sleep very comfortably on this boat and we’ve actually slept two adults and four kids on the boat! We would frequently jump on the boat and head to Annapolis just to get ice cream on a hot summer day, dinner with friends or brunch on a Saturday morning.В This boat has everything a family with young children could possibly want, and we will miss her more than you know.

The last reason we looked only for the Chaparral 265SSi was due to its stellar record of safety, low maintenance requirements, and ease of use. В Other than re-powering the boat this past winter, I have had absolutely no major problems whatsoever with the boat, only normal maintenance. В We replaced the cockpit carpeting and had the full Isinglass enclosure customer made to make our overnight weekends on the water even more pleasurable. В The brand new engine has only 2 hours on it so it’s good to go for a long time. She’s held up tremendously well, as I expected she would. Of course, never having bottom paint and being kept on a boatel rack ensured that the bottom and outdrive were kept in like-new condition. В She comes with a heavy-duty winter cover making winter storage very easy. I deep cleaned and waxed this boat twice every season and washed her down after every use, serviced the outdrive every spring and had her professionally winterized every year. В Because of this level of care, she is still in like-new, almost showroom condition, as you can see for yourself.

So the time has come to hand this boat off to the next family who I know will get as much enjoyment out of her as we have. В My youngest is starting college in the fall and we are selling the boat only to help cover the cost of her education. Once college for our kids is done, we will be looking to buy another Chaparral, one large enough to take long trips up and down the ICW.В

Enjoy!
