Hi, I'm Austin Ashley
and welcome to the Product Tour
of the 28 Surf from Chaparral.
This boat has a length overall of 28 feet, a beam
of 8 feet, 6 inches,
and a fuel capacity of 80 gallons.
This feature packed boat is sure to provide plenty
of excitement for you and your family out on the water.
Let's take a closer look.
The 28 Surf utilizes the patented Malibu Surf Gate.
Using this, we're able to eliminate the need
for oversized trim tab-like structures
and excessive ballast.
Alongside of a forward facing drive
and a specially designed wake surf hull, you're guaranteed
to have the best wave on the water.
The bow of the 28 Surf is perfect for any family.
This area features full wraparound bolsters, curved seatbacks
with lumbar support, pull up armrests,
two stainless steel draining cup holders,
and a full length grab rail.
I'm 6 foot 2 and this area has plenty of room for me
to stretch out in. The boat we're on today features the
optional blackout package, which has a cayenne colored
with black accent silicone upholstery.
The silicone upholstery is easy to clean, very durable,
and has a supple and luxurious feel.
The 28 Surf also features a standard bow table
that has dedicated storage
and a stainless steel side mount leg making this the perfect
area for snacks or drinks
on the water. To port
and starboard, you have twin storage compartments
that are supported by articulating hinges,
meaning they're easy to access
and the lids won't fall on you.
To center, you have a removable cushion that gives way
to a diamond pattern non-skid step to your foredeck,
and under that is a molded-in insulated
and overboard draining cooler.
Your foredeck features diamond pattern non-skid,
which provides a safe step, flush mount hardware,
pull up cleats, and a hideaway nav light.
This boat features the optional windlass system
that's located inside an oversized anchor locker
and with that windlass system, you have easy
to access windlass controls
aside from your controls of the helm.
The helm of the 28 Surf was designed
with the captain in mind.
A full wraparound windshield provides
protection while underway.
Your standard windshield will feature a
stainless steel cap rail.
This one is black due to the black edition package.
A hand stitched vinyl wrap brow provides excellent
resistance against glare.
You have twin standard Simrad 7 inch displays
that are slightly angled to provide a better viewing angle.
Your Simrad displays will be able to provide you
with engine diagnostics
or a map, as well as controls for your surf system.
On either side of the dash, you have stainless steel panels
that house your backlit push button
switches. To starboard,
you have a Clarion head unit with USB ports
and an auxiliary input, a stainless steel cup holder
that drains and easy control to your pinnacle.
To center, you have a leather wrapped steering wheel
with free floating medallion and a tilled base.
This boat also features standard premium bucket seats
with wraparound bolsters, a lower vent for ventilation,
and slide and swivel controls
right here at your fingertips. To port on the 28 Surf,
you have a molded fiberglass head door
that is wrapped in a hand stitched vinyl features,
a locking glove box, and a stainless steel grab rail.
This head door gives way to a standard head compartment.
This head compartment comes standard with teak flooring,
a porta-potty, an opening port light with screen,
and a solid surface countertop vanity that features
a stainless steel sink and pull out sprayer.
The boat we're on today features the
optional electric toilet upgrade.
The cockpit of the 28 Surf is perfect for entertaining.
You have two helm seats that swivel around
to join the conversation.
A large L-shaped seating area and a starboard side bench.
Under gunwale, you have recessed cubbies
that house your stainless steel draining cup
holders and grab rails.
This boat also comes standard with a bow
and cockpit table that has a stainless steel side mount leg
making this a perfect place for drinks or snacks on the water.
With your standard arch
and bimini top, this is also a great
place to get out of the sun.
The cockpit of the 28 Surf offers tons of storage.
You have a large storage area under your port side bench.
You have dedicated storage
for a standard carry-on cooler under your starboard side
seating and floor storage.
At the stern of the 28 Surf, you have a lot
of great features. To start,
you have port and starboard fuel fills,
which makes using the gas dock even easier.
You have four stainless steel cleats, two
of which are pull up, a stainless steel grab bar,
and a low integrated tow point.
This swim platform is absolutely massive.
You have almost 30 square feet of usable space.
It also features
my favorite thing on this boat, the standard
Infinity Power Step.
Easy to use, it is an electrically actuated mechanism
that gives you three steps, a full foot under the water,
which makes boarding
and entering the water easy, especially for water sports.
You can sit in the water and put on your skis
or get ready to surf. When powering up the step,
it actually pulls power from the helm,
meaning you don't have
to worry about anybody starting the motor
while the step is down.
You also have a three-quarter width bench that easily
transforms into our Aft facing Vista View Lounge.
For the perfect water sports adventure with your friends
or family, the 28 Surf is the boat for you.

Thanks for joining me on this product tour.
I'm Austin Ashley, and we'll see you next time.
