Hi, I'm Austin Ashley
and welcome to the product tour
of the 300 OSX from Chaparral.
This boat has an LOA of 30 feet, 6 inches, a beam of 9
and a half, and a standard fiberglass hard top.
This day cruiser combines the comforts of a sport boat
and the functionality of a center console
creating a new standard and outboard luxury.
Let's take a closer look. With a range
of horsepower options
and a hull designed with performance in mind,
the 300 OSX can champion array
of conditions comfortably and efficiently.
A pore composite transom, a Kevlar reinforced hull,
and a self bailing cockpit are some additional features
that add to the functionality and safety of this boat.
Moving into the bow of the 300 OSX,
you'll immediately notice just how big this area really is.
By utilizing a walk around console design, we were able
to create this massive forward facing sun lounge
that can comfortably sit three adults with room to spare.
You have one piece stainless steel bow rails
that are easily accessible. To port and starboard,
you have recessed cubbies
that feature speakers and cup holders.
You have a full wraparound bolster that adds comfort
for additional seating,
and you can add the optional bow filler cushion
that turns this area into one large sun pad.
This boat comes standard with a removable bow
and cockpit table that features dedicated storage,
draining cup holders,
and a stainless steel custom side mount base.
When outfitted in the bow,
it makes this a perfect place for lunch
on the water. To starboard
and forward center, you have two insulated
and overboard draining coolers that are perfect
for keeping your drinks cold while a long day out on the
water, and it's a lot more convenient than having
to tote a large cooler on board. With the lid
in the down position,
you have diamond pattern non-skid that makes for a safe
and easy step up onto the foredeck.
This area is large
and again features diamond pattern non-skid,
flush mount hardware,
and two stainless steel pull-up cleats.
Under this lid, you have large unobstructed access
to your standard windlass system
that also features rope, chain and a 22 pound anchor.
The lid is supported by tension hinges.
You have two switches to use your windlass, as well
as switches at the helm.
You also have a tie off cleat, a chain safety strap
and dedicated storage for your windlass tool.
A defining feature of the 300 OSX is the unique
and innovative center steer helm design.
This places you dead center not only of the boat,
but of your ergonomically designed symmetrical helm, both
of which equate to a better boating experience.
You have easy to reach backlit push button switches on
either side of your standard twin Simrad 9 inch
displays. To center,
you have your engine gauge
and the boat we're on today
features the Sea Star Optimus 360 joystick steering system,
which adds a small display screen
below. You have a leather wrap steering wheel mounted
to a tilt base, which is made easy to use.
Thanks to the standard Seastar hydraulic power
steering. To starboard,
you have pinnacle mounted throttle
and shift, as well
as your trim tab controls. To port,
you have two stainless steel draining cup holders,
auxiliary inputs, and your stereo remote.
To further enhance the helm experience,
you have a triple wide helm seat that has flip-up,
bolsters and armrests.
You have a double wide captain section for you
and your co-pilot and to starboard, a single section
for anyone else who wants to come up and join at the wheel.
The boat we're on today has the stationary helm with wet bar
that features a solid surface countertop,
a hidden trash receptacle, a stainless steel sink
and pullout sprayer, starboard side storage compartment,
and a refrigerator. Standard on the 300 OSX is the
same triple wide seat,
but mounted to a pivoting fiberglass base
that swings out against the starboard wall
to create an incredible cockpit entertaining area.
With a standard fiberglass hard top, it's easy
to stay comfortable and protected from the sun
on those long days out.
Add the optional Sure Shade
and you have full coverage all the
way out to the swim platform.
This feature packed hard top is supported
by a custom heavy duty aluminum powdercoated frame.
It features two speaker pods, overhead LED lighting
and a bonded glass skylight with a dual shade system,
allowing you to get a lot, a little,
or no overhead sun while at the helm.
Moving aft, you have a large cockpit
that's great for entertaining.
Like I mentioned before,
the boat we're on today has the optional stationary helm
seat and wet bar, which is great for meals out on the water.
Your standard pivoting helm seat will swing out
and open up the cockpit to create a great conversation area.
The standard cockpit table
increases the functionality of either layout.
You have a comfortable L-shaped seating
with dedicated storage for a carry-on cooler,
back-to-back bench seating,
and an electric lift bilge hatch.
On our way out of the cockpit,
you'll notice this great feature, a standard
cockpit side entry door
that features stainless steel hardware
and an aluminum ladder.
Whether you're getting on and off the dock
or swimming at the sandbar, getting in
and outta the 300 OSX will never be an issue.
Keep on moving and you'll come through the transom
walkthrough, that's standard with a transom gate,
a concealed power center that has your battery switches
and jumpstart lugs, a stainless steel transom
freshwater shower, stereo remote,
and controls for your Vista View lounge.
With the simple press of a button, your back-
to-back bench seating transforms into a Vista View Lounge.
You can lay it totally flat to create a large sun pad
that shares the dimensions similar of a queen size bed.
You can lift the forward back rest like seen here
and create an aft facing chaise lounge,
or lift up the aft back rest
and create a forward facing lounge, making sure
that you always have the most comfortable seat on the water.
Continuing aft, you have an easy to navigate
full width swim platform that features diamond pattern,
non-skid, two standard cleats and two pullup cleats.
You have dual fuel fills to alleviate the hassle of trying
to fill up at the pump, a three-quarter width bench,
and to starboard,
you have an underside stainless steel reboarding ladder.
When it comes to functionality,
the 300 OSX does not come up short.
Starboard to the helm is a lockable sliding door
that gives access to a full fiberglass
cabin and head compartment.
This large compartment has overhead LED lighting,
an opening port light for ventilation,
and a standard forward berth cushion.
The compartment itself is easy to access, making it great
for extra storage or a place for the kids
or yourself to escape the sun on those long days out on the
water, or maybe even take a nap while you're anchored up.
Add the 12 volt AC system
and you may never want to get out. To starboard,
you have a standard vanity
with a solid surface countertop, stainless steel sink
with a faucet. To center,
you have a standard concealed electric toilet
on a sliding mechanism.
We developed this sliding system with the customer in mind,
ensuring that you have easy access
to your head while maintaining the multi-functionality.
With outstanding bow seating, a versatile cockpit layout
and the Vista View Lounge, the 300 OSX has earned its name,
the Outboard Entertainer.
