Chaparral 297 Ssx

Clean and Maintained, Low Hours on Engine Block Replaced in 2023! Loaded!

********************** CERTIFIED SINGLE OWNER **********************

This 2019 Chaparral 297 SSX is clean and thoughtfully powered example of one of Chaparral's most respected large bowriders. Known for its strong build quality, refined fit and finish, and balanced performance, the 297 SSX has earned a solid reputation among owners for delivering both comfort and confident handling.

This particular boat is located at Lake of the Ozarks, has been used exclusively in freshwater, and is reported by the owner to be in very good overall condition. It is powered by a MerCruiser 8.2L MAG HO rated at 430 horsepower, with only 30 hours on the longblock installed in 2023. No trailer is included in the sale.

At just under 30 feet in length with a wide beam, the 297 SSX offers a stable and substantial feel on the water. Chaparral's extended V-plane hull design is frequently noted in owner feedback for providing a smooth ride in afternoon chop while still maintaining responsive handling and predictable tracking at cruising speeds. The 8.2L MAG HO is a desirable power option for this model, offering strong torque and acceleration that matches the boat's size well. With only 30 hours on the longblock, the propulsion system reflects extremely light use since replacement.

The cockpit layout is designed with both entertaining and functionality in mind. A spacious wraparound seating arrangement aft creates a comfortable social area, while the dual adjustable captain's chairs at the helm and companion positions provide supportive seating underway. The bow seating area is generous for a boat in this class, offering deep cushions, integrated armrests, and storage compartments beneath the seats. Chaparral is known for quality upholstery work and attention to detail, durable materials, and clean fit and finish throughout.

The helm station is arranged for practical operation, with gauges and controls positioned within easy reach and clear sightlines forward. The wide beam not only contributes to ride stability but also allows for comfortable movement throughout the cockpit. Storage is thoughtfully distributed, making it easy to stow life jackets, lines, fenders, and water toys. The extended swim platform at the stern is a highlight of this model, providing convenient access to the water for swimming and watersports, as well as a comfortable space to relax at anchor.

The 297 SSX is a versatile platform that bridges the gap between a traditional bowrider and a day yacht. It is large enough to host family and friends comfortably, yet remains manageable for an experienced operator. Whether cruising the lake, anchoring in a cove, or towing skiers and wakeboarders, this model offers the performance and layout to support a wide range of boating activities. The 430 horsepower rating delivers confident mid-range power and smooth acceleration, well suited for carrying a full passenger load without feeling strained.

This 2019 Chaparral 297 SSX presents a solid opportunity for a buyer seeking a freshwater-kept boat with updated power and a well-regarded hull design.
