Chaparral 196 SSi 2000

Introducing the 2000 Chaparral 196 SSi, a perfect blend of performance and comfort for family boating. Powered by a robust Mercury 5.0L engine with 584.20 hours, this boat rides on a custom tandem axle trailer. Among its impressive features are an anchor locker, dual captain's seats with flip-up bolsters, a bimini top, and a digital depth gauge. For navigation and fishing, it includes a Lowrance Elite 7Ti chart/fishfinder and a Fireboy automatic fire extinguisher system for added safety. Recent service on 5/14/25 included a boot job for the Alpha I Gen II, a gear lube change, and upgrades such as a new Boss radio and new navigation and anchor lights. While it does require some work on the interior upholstery and has minor gel coat damage on the rear starboard side, the Chaparral 196 SSi offers a thrilling experience for skiers and wakeboarders alike with its exceptional low-end pulling power. The bucket seats are upholstered in durable 40-ounce vinyl with supportive headrests, and the boat features four stereo speakers for entertainment. Thoughtful design elements like molded footrests and padded armrests elevate comfort, while a specialized cockpit drainage system, combined with Kelron seat bases and Flow-Foam, effectively keeps water out of the interior. Built with fiberglass construction, stainless hardware, and an aluminum dashboard, the 196 SSi is designed for lasting performance.
