Chaparral Photo Thread

[blackhawkpilot]

We need a pictures thread for the Chaps on here. I'll start.

@blackhawkpilot great pics. What is that attached to the end of your swim platform?

 

[blackhawkpilot]

It's the "Aerial Surf Platform (ASP)". It came with the ballast system and creates more of a wake. I HATE having the ballast system. We don't do any wake surfing, but it was installed when I got the boat. I may have the dealer take it out when I take it in for service. The only advantage I see to the ASP is it gives me a little more real estate on the swim platform.

 

[ToddW850]

Oh, okay. Makes sense. Looks like you could turn it into a cooler! So you can stay in the water to get more drinks.

 

[Jet Blue]

I am not sure if I am more jealous of your ASP set up or the beautiful water you boat in! I will get some up this weekend of my Chap.

 

[Jet Blue]

Ok... so I couldn't wait for the weekend...

 

[blackhawkpilot]

Nice!! At least we have one more team player. I like that blue and black combination. Haven't seen that color scheme before.

My contribution

Phew. I was hesitant to click on this thread, I just imagined some joker posting a pic of some not so scenic assless chaps.

Those are some great looking boats!

 

[blackhawkpilot]

Oh, man...c'mon!! There's always "that guy". I'll refrain from posting any of those chaps.

 

[BobJohnson]

Here's a few. I'll post more, promise.

A picture from my trip today - posted in the chap bimini thread thinking these were the same for some reason.

Does the 203 have one engine?

 

[BobJohnson]

Does the 203 have one engine?

yep. 203 = 1 engine and then as you know, the 223 and 243 are twin engines.

 

[Tlewellyn]

@blackhawkpilot The 2016 203 can have dual 150s or single 200 or 250. I have the 250. Would have loved to have duals this past weekend as I sucked up a rope. We were able to limp back and cut it out and got back out on the water.

 

[BobJohnson]

Wow, didn't realize with the 2016's you could get twins I the 203. Thanks

 

[2nazt]

That could be cool to have the dual 150s. I did not realize that either.

 

[blackhawkpilot]

I had no idea the 203's have a one engine option. Interesting.

Yes... I have 1 250 in my boat.

My boat also seems to have an issue with my Medallion speedometer before connecting to whatever it connects to for time/gps/direction/etc. That photo was taken when I first started up after an hour of swimming and not even yet up on plane. Yup. Pretty damn impressive! Go chaps!!!
