Chaparral builds exceptionally high quality boats. We offer numerous
extras you won’t see at a boat show. We’ve created a list for your review.
Gelcoat
The advanced technology polyester we use offers superior weather-
ing resistance to surface yellowing and chalking. It will also help
protect and maintain the original glossy luster of your boat’s finish.
Chaparral uses a premium quality gelcoat which offers improved
flexibility over other gelcoats, minimizing the potential for cracking.
Resin
It’s an age-old problem. Water penetrates the gelcoat and blisters
the bottom. The key is the resin. To cut costs, most use a general
purpose resin. Chaparral uses a premium quality resin in the hull
skin coat of every boat in our line because of its superior bonding
characteristics and exceptional flex.
Plywood
To protect their wooden components from rot and deterioration,
most boat builders dip their plywood parts in a vat of protective
sealant. Unfortunately, this only offers very minimal protection for
the outside plies. The plywood Chaparral uses throughout our boats
is pressure treated with a wood preservative and fungi inhibiting
chemical before it is kiln dried.
Loom Wrap Wiring
Attention to rigging detail is a Chaparral hallmark. Instead of routing
the engine wiring harness haphazardly in the bilge in black tape, we
rely on automotive style flexguard loom that not only keeps things
neat but also protects against abrasion.
Through Bolted Stainless Steel Cleats
It’s one of the most often used components on your boat, but most
people think a cleat is a cleat, right? Wrong. Chaparral’s cleats are
stainless steel so they won’t corrode and so they won’t twist. Also,
ours are big enough to accept a full-sized looped line.
Heavy Duty Rub Rail
A rub rail is supposed to protect your boat. Most don’t because they’re
the wrong material. Chaparral uses a heavy-duty PVC rub rail with
stainless steel insert that absorbs far more impact without denting.
Acoustical Foam
The name says it all. Acoustical foam is the best way we’ve found to
absorb engine noise.
Acrylic Tops
Ours are acrylic because it’s a superior material that won’t crack,
peel, or mildew. Further, our acrylic tops won’t shrink or expand,
which means they look and fit better in all weather conditions.
Stain Resistant Fabrics
Accidents happen. Spilled drinks, wet bathing suits and soggy tow-
els are a fact of life on a boat. All our cabin fabrics are stain
resistant. Buyers can choose from a wide variety of colors. When it
comes to interior fabrics, we have the one that’s right for you.
Superior Plastics vs. Wood
Chaparral prides itself on building seats that are not only comfortable,
but durable. We use plastic seats because they hold their shape and
don’t retain water, reducing the potential for foam deterioration.
