Hi, I'm Austin Ashley
and welcome to the product tour
of the 21 SSI from Chaparral.
This boat has a length overall of 21 feet, a beam
of eight feet, four inches, and a passenger capacity of 12.
This performance minded bow rider is the perfect boat
to get anyone on the water.
Let's take a closer look.
Starting here, the transom.
You'll immediately notice a very important feature.
This boat, like all stern Drive Chaparrals,
features the award-winning extended V plane hole design.
By extending the running surface past the transom,
we're able to significantly decrease bow rise,
get on plane faster and stay on plane at lower speeds,
resulting in better efficiency.
All of this together makes for a more comfortable
and fuel efficient day on the water.
With this boat, you won't have to worry about trying
to find a trailer that may
or may not work as part
of the Chaparral one package your 21 SSI will come standard
with a factory matched tandem-axle trailer
from Coyote Manufacturing.
This trailer features a swing away tongue trailer side
guides four wheel disc brakes and submersible LED lighting.
The boat we have here today features the
optional aluminum wheel upgrade.
You can also opt for an aluminum trailer instead
of the standard black powder coated trailer.
The bow of the 21 SSI was designed and outfitted for comfort
and function forward.
We have a large four deck
that features diamond pattern non-skid flush mount hardware
and dedicated storage for a dam.
Fourth style anchor.
Notice the keepers that will keep your anchor in place.
A removable cushion reveals diamond pattern non-skid
for a safe step to and from the fore deck
and to port and starboard,
you have twin fiberglass storage compartments.
Fiberglass being important
because there's no carpet to get wet and hold moisture.
This large seating area features wraparound bolsters
draining stainless steel cup holders, curved backrest
for comfortable seating
and easy to reach stainless steel grab rails.
The port side features a fiberglass gel coated passenger
console that also has a hand-stitched vinyl brow
and a lockable glove box with auxiliary input.
Below that, you have a stainless steel grab rail to port.
You have two stainless steel draining cup holders,
a storage cubby
and an armrest integrated into the combing bolster, all
of which ensures that your copilot has a safe
and comfortable ride between the two consoles.
You have easy access to your stereo, remote,
and large console storage compartments.
At the helm, we have a full wraparound windshield
with custom stainless steel supports
that provides ample protection
and visibility while underway.
You also have a center walkthrough section that when paired
with the bow close off door provides additional protection
against the elements or cool air
on those early mornings out.
Your fiberglass helm is gel coated
and features a hand-stitched vinyl brow that reduces glare.
The 21 SSI comes standard with full instrumentation that
features fog resistant lenses, chrome bezels,
and custom dial faces.
You can also opt for a Simrad touchscreen display.
Below that are weatherproof toggle switches on either side
of your power assisted steering wheel mounted
to a tilt base to starboard.
You have a stainless steel draining cup holder,
a storage cubby,
and a conveniently placed armrest
for comfortable operation of your throttle.
Chaparral One is a simplified buying experience
that removes the hassle of negotiation
and lets you get out on the water faster
by removing MSRP from the transaction.
What you'll find on select Chaparral models is a single, fair
nationally advertised price.
The spacious cockpit on the 21 will have you thinking
that you're in a bigger boat standard with swivel
and slide bucket seats.
You can easily swing around to act as a spotter
for water sports or join the conversation when anchored up.
Your passengers will love the back bench
that easily fits three to four adults
and has a easy access to stainless steel grab handles
and draining cup holders.
Remove the cushions and you have additional storage below
the port side containing your standard battery
switch to center.
You have a standard built-in 70 quart cooler
that drains overboard.
This cockpit also features a massive
in floor storage compartment that's great for fenders,
dock lines, skis, or wakeboards.
The 21 SSI has engine options from Mercury Marine
or Volvo Penta ranging from 200 to 250 horsepower.
Whichever you choose,
the engine will always be easily accessible
by lifting up on this backrest.
The lid is supported by two gas assist struts
and features convoluted foam for sound management.
Notice that when the lid is up, you also have access
to two additional storage compartments.
A feature that I really like is that all of the components
and service reminders are easily accessible
here at the front of the engine.
This sun pad was engineered with functionality in mind.
It features a tri position lounge with a port
or starboard chase that easily lifts
and locks into place to center.
You also have an aft facing jump seat, all
of which is standard on the 21.
You have a full width swim platform that's perfect
for hanging out or putting on your skis.
Diamond pattern, non-skid provides a safe step.
A standard stainless steel reboarding ladder provides easy
access and an integrated tow point
is perfect for water sports.
You can also add the optional extended swim platform
and you've almost doubled your usable space.
Whether it's cruising around on the lake
or all out water sports fun with the family.
The 21 SSI is the boat to do it in, which is
what makes it Chaparral's number one seller.
And after today, I hope it's number one on your list.
