2005 Chaparral 236 Sunesta w/Seakeeper and Trailer
None other like it on the market, extraordinarily well maintained and equipped with the fabulous Seakeeper Gyroscopic stabilizer and Seakeeper Ride automatic trim and leveling systems.
So, what does that mean?
Simply put, an efficient 24′ boat with the ride of a 34′ boat, no bobbing around at anchor, no porpoising while underway, the systems automatically maintain the ideal plane angle for most efficient, rock-steady operation… like driving an anvil. More comfort, less fatigue, easier on the lumbar spine.
The owners have pampered this boat for years, (just upgraded to a 40′ with Seakeeper as well) overall condition essentially Bristol with the additional features and upgrades, if you are used to a bigger boat and downsizing or looking for something to stay in the game with something you can tow off to new locations or keep at home, this just might be the ticket, the big boat feel you are used to in an economical, low maintenance package. Even though a broker should be conditioned to virtually never call any used boat “immaculate” or “turn-key”, the two most overused phrases in owner advertising, this one is as close as it gets.
