Let's take a closer look.

00:00:38.595 --> 00:00:41.295
The boat we have here today features the optional

00:00:41.815 --> 00:00:44.095

You can choose this trailer in either black powder coat

14
00:00:55.515 --> 00:00:56.855
or aluminum I-beam.

15
00:00:57.235 --> 00:00:59.535
You can also opt for a spare tire kit

16
00:00:59.915 --> 00:01:01.815
or upgraded aluminum wheels.

17
00:01:02.665 --> 00:01:06.805
The 247 SSX features an oversized bow area,

18
00:01:07.215 --> 00:01:09.085
which is perfect for your friends

19
00:01:09.085 --> 00:01:10.925
and family to be comfortable while on the water,

20
00:01:11.705 --> 00:01:14.645
you have full wraparound combing bolster

00:01:15.225 --> 00:01:17.645
and full length stainless steel grab rails

22
00:01:17.985 --> 00:01:19.565
for extra safety and comfort.

23
00:01:20.225 --> 00:01:23.085
You have two draining stainless steel cup holders

24
00:01:23.705 --> 00:01:26.685

00:01:26.685 --> 00:01:27.765
as backlit speakers.

26
00:01:28.345 --> 00:01:30.605
And when it comes to storage, there is no shortage.

27
00:01:32.105 --> 00:01:34.845
Simply lift up on the seat back,

28
00:01:35.345 --> 00:01:38.125
and you have an extra large storage compartment,

29
00:01:38.435 --> 00:01:39.525
port and starboard.

30
00:01:40.025 --> 00:01:43.605
You have Chaparral's cockpit drainage system gutter

31
00:01:43.795 --> 00:01:45.005
that surrounds the opening

32
00:01:45.305 --> 00:01:49.885
to keep your items dry. Forward,

33
00:01:50.505 --> 00:01:54.485
you have a removable cushion that gives way

34
00:01:54.505 --> 00:01:57.725
to a diamond pattern non-skid step to the front,

35
00:01:58.155 --> 00:02:02.285
that also conceals a built-in insulated

36
00:02:02.385 --> 00:02:03.845
and overboard draining cooler.

37
00:02:06.445 --> 00:02:07.535
With the cushion removed

38
00:02:07.595 --> 00:02:10.935
and the lid down, you have a safe step up to your

39
00:02:11.585 --> 00:02:13.215
extra wide foredeck.

40
00:02:13.725 --> 00:02:16.535
This foredeck is covered in a diamond pattern, non-skid

41
00:02:16.755 --> 00:02:20.055
and features pull up cleats to reduce tripping hazards.

42
00:02:21.035 --> 00:02:24.695
The bow of the 247 SSX can also be optioned

43
00:02:24.695 --> 00:02:26.935
with things like the bow and cockpit table.

44
00:02:27.765 --> 00:02:29.615
This is great for lunch on the water

45
00:02:29.615 --> 00:02:30.775
with your friends or family.

46
00:02:31.565 --> 00:02:34.695
This table features a stainless steel side mount leg

47
00:02:34.915 --> 00:02:36.055
and dedicated storage.

48
00:02:36.955 --> 00:02:39.255
You can also opt for the bow filler cushion,

49
00:02:39.505 --> 00:02:42.375
which transforms the bow into a large sun pad.

50
00:02:42.595 --> 00:02:46.455
You also have an oversized bow anchor locker.

51
00:02:46.925 --> 00:02:50.855
This features dedicated storage with keeper tabs

52
00:02:50.855 --> 00:02:52.055
for a Danforth style anchor.

53
00:02:52.475 --> 00:02:55.655
And notice the lid is held up with tension hinges

54
00:02:55.915 --> 00:02:58.335
to prevent the lid from falling on your fingers while trying

55
00:02:58.335 --> 00:02:59.470
to access this area.

56
00:03:01.665 --> 00:03:04.645
The helm of the 247 SSX was designed

57
00:03:04.645 --> 00:03:06.005
with ergonomics in mind.

58
00:03:06.965 --> 00:03:09.605
A full wraparound windshield with stainless steel cap

59
00:03:09.665 --> 00:03:13.925
and custom supports offers a walkthrough door to provide you

60
00:03:14.035 --> 00:03:16.285
with protection on those cold mornings.

61
00:03:17.925 --> 00:03:19.085
A hand wrapped

62
00:03:19.305 --> 00:03:22.445
and stitched vinyl brow that offers glare resistance.

63
00:03:23.115 --> 00:03:27.285
Stainless steel backlit push button switches on either side

64
00:03:27.665 --> 00:03:30.805
of your twin standard SIMRAD displays.

65
00:03:31.545 --> 00:03:35.685
You have a tilt steering wheel that is stitched leather

66
00:03:36.155 --> 00:03:39.965
with a floating logoed medallion, and to the starboard side,

67
00:03:40.345 --> 00:03:43.805
you have a integrated armrest with easy access

68
00:03:43.985 --> 00:03:46.965
to your pinnacle control and a cup holder

69
00:03:47.225 --> 00:03:50.445
and AM FM Bluetooth radio. To your port,

70
00:03:50.665 --> 00:03:53.485
you have a mirrored dash with a lockable glove box,

71
00:03:54.505 --> 00:03:57.845
cup holder, armrest, and stainless steel grab rail.

72
00:03:58.825 --> 00:04:02.405
The cockpit of the 247 SSX is not only spacious,

73
00:04:02.785 --> 00:04:06.845
but offers plenty of seating and storage. Here to port,

74
00:04:07.265 --> 00:04:11.485
you have a co-captains chair that offers a flip up bolster

75
00:04:11.785 --> 00:04:13.125
for extra seating options,

76
00:04:14.185 --> 00:04:16.445
and when it's time to act as a spotter

77
00:04:16.545 --> 00:04:19.965
or for conversation, simply lean this forward

78
00:04:20.545 --> 00:04:22.125
and you have an aft facing lounge.

79
00:04:23.995 --> 00:04:26.005
This cockpit is extra deep

80
00:04:26.505 --> 00:04:30.685
and large with curved seat backs for comfort for everyone.

81
00:04:31.265 --> 00:04:34.405
You also have stainless steel grab rails in

82
00:04:34.405 --> 00:04:35.445
case the water gets rough.

83
00:04:36.585 --> 00:04:39.805
The cockpit is self baling, which means that any water

84
00:04:39.805 --> 00:04:41.445
that were to enter the cockpit would

85
00:04:41.445 --> 00:04:43.045
immediately be drained overboard.

86
00:04:44.215 --> 00:04:45.515
As far as storage goes,

87
00:04:45.855 --> 00:04:49.835
you have a large storage compartment right here beneath me,

88
00:04:50.535 --> 00:04:53.355
an extra large floor storage compartment, which is perfect

89
00:04:53.495 --> 00:04:55.995
for safety kits or skis or wakeboards.

90
00:04:56.695 --> 00:05:00.435
And to starboard, you have a built-in molded-in

91
00:05:01.145 --> 00:05:03.315
insulated overboard drain cooler.

92
00:05:04.975 --> 00:05:07.755
You'll also notice the boat we have here today features the

93
00:05:08.195 --> 00:05:12.115
optional EFX electric arch Tower, which comes standard

94
00:05:12.385 --> 00:05:13.435
with the bimini top.

95
00:05:14.335 --> 00:05:17.555
If you don't opt for the electric folding arch tower,

96
00:05:17.865 --> 00:05:22.035
this boat comes standard with a standard bimini top, both

97
00:05:22.035 --> 00:05:25.075
of which offer plenty of protection. The aft end

98
00:05:25.075 --> 00:05:29.195
of the 247 SSX was designed with the user in mind.

99
00:05:30.095 --> 00:05:31.635
The extra wide walkthrough

100
00:05:31.635 --> 00:05:34.235
to the cockpit contains a storage compartment,

101
00:05:34.285 --> 00:05:36.755
which also doubles as access to your battery switch.

102
00:05:37.485 --> 00:05:38.835
Being here at the aft section

103
00:05:38.835 --> 00:05:40.835
of the boat means the first thing

104
00:05:40.895 --> 00:05:42.595
or the last thing you do while getting on

105
00:05:42.595 --> 00:05:45.075
or off the boat is activating your battery switch.

106
00:05:46.735 --> 00:05:49.955
You have a large platform that's almost full width

107
00:05:50.295 --> 00:05:52.515
and covered in diamond pattern non-skid.

108
00:05:52.865 --> 00:05:54.395
This is great because diamond pattern

109
00:05:54.395 --> 00:05:55.875
non-skid is very durable,

110
00:05:56.345 --> 00:05:59.805
it's very easy to clean and it's easy on the feet.

111
00:06:00.105 --> 00:06:01.805
It also channels water very well,

112
00:06:01.805 --> 00:06:03.645
which means every step you take on this

113
00:06:03.925 --> 00:06:05.525
platform is going to be safe.

114
00:06:06.665 --> 00:06:08.045
In the starboard aft corner,

115
00:06:08.425 --> 00:06:12.165
you have a concealed standard stainless steel reboarding

116
00:06:12.165 --> 00:06:14.885
ladder with an integrated grab rail making this

117
00:06:15.405 --> 00:06:16.965
platform very easy to access.

118
00:06:17.915 --> 00:06:20.655
You also have a large stainless steel grab rail

119
00:06:20.655 --> 00:06:22.455
with an integrated low tow point.

120
00:06:23.315 --> 00:06:26.135
You have two stainless steel pull-up cleats,

121
00:06:26.595 --> 00:06:30.455
two stainless steel standard cleats and two port

122
00:06:30.475 --> 00:06:32.135
and starboard fuel fills,

123
00:06:32.145 --> 00:06:34.695
which means whichever side you pull up on the fuel

124
00:06:34.725 --> 00:06:36.335
dock, it's no problem at all.

125
00:06:36.395 --> 00:06:37.815
You'll always be able to get fuel.

126
00:06:38.725 --> 00:06:41.695
Here in the port corner, you have a jump seat,

127
00:06:41.985 --> 00:06:44.655
which also doubles as battery access.

128
00:06:46.605 --> 00:06:49.175
Your three quarter width bench is very comfortable

129
00:06:49.355 --> 00:06:53.695
and easily transforms into an aft facing lounge.

130
00:06:56.325 --> 00:06:59.055
Here at the transom on the 247 SSX,

131
00:06:59.435 --> 00:07:02.175
we have Chaparral's Award-winning extended

132
00:07:02.415 --> 00:07:03.455
V plane hull design.

133
00:07:04.075 --> 00:07:06.175
To many, this may not look like much,

134
00:07:06.555 --> 00:07:09.895
but by extending the running surface past the transom

135
00:07:09.895 --> 00:07:12.775
and the drive, it allows you to get on plane quicker,

136
00:07:13.205 --> 00:07:14.975
stay on plane at lower speeds,

137
00:07:15.435 --> 00:07:16.895
it increases efficiency,

138
00:07:17.065 --> 00:07:19.215
which all keeps you on the water longer.

139
00:07:19.605 --> 00:07:22.055
Whether it's a high speed run across the lake

140
00:07:22.475 --> 00:07:23.895
or a late afternoon cruise

141
00:07:23.915 --> 00:07:25.375
to your favorite restaurant on the water,

142
00:07:26.035 --> 00:07:28.735
the 247 SSX is sure to excite.

143
00:07:29.835 --> 00:07:31.415
