Chaparral 277 SSX:
Family Bowrider Checks All the Boxes
The 277 SSX is an example of a boat that was designed by people who had a clear understanding of what their customers want in a bowrider/day boat. The aft bench and generous cockpit seating make it easy to entertain a crowd and the large swim platform provides a functional place for participating in watersports. Throughout the boat, some of the deepest freeboard in class enhances security. The proven Extended V-Plane bottom design provides a superlative ride and predictably smooth handling at any speed.

Boston Whaler 210 Montauk:
All-New and Improved Classic
When Boston Whaler redesigned the flagship of its Montauk line a year ago, she received a new bottom with a sharper entry that warped aft to 16 degrees of deadrise at the transom. She was also given new comfort-oriented features like aft quarter seats and an owner can spiff her up with colored hullsides. Some elements, however, couldn’t be changed.
