This auction if for my beloved 2005 Chaparral 204 SSI Bow Rider. Though nine years old, she is a beauty. Well used, but really well taken care of. I thoroughly cleaned after each use and she ONLY HAS 178.9 hours on her! I only used her on lakes or rivers, and I still always flushed the engine after each use. She starts instantly and runs all day long. I'm upgrading to a Chaparral 236 SSX (yea!) so time to let her go. She really is clean but, again, nine years old. Some scuff and scratches on the side, some can probably be buffed out. Some marks on the seats, which I am pretty sure can be cleaned off with the right cleaner. The Bimini top is in good shape. It also has a bow and cockpit cover. All not perfect, but in great shape. I replaced the battery and compass this past summer. I used this boat mostly for tubing, knee boarding, skiing... Many times it was eight of us (some kids). With the Volvo 5.0 engine, the boat had no problem getting up to speed quickly. The boat also comes with snap in carpet which I only used a handful of times. It also comes with a Taylor Made Boat Enclsosure (see pics) which is really handy if a unexpected storm comes up. Extended Platform, 5.0 Volvo Penta Motor, Flip Up Bolsters on both seats, and on and on... Vin: FG8G2249E505 2005 204 SSI Chaparral My price includes a tandem axle trailer, also in good shape, though it looks like one of the tires needs to be replaced. The trailer has a spare tire AND a spare hub which can be really helpful if you have a wheel issue on the side of the road. Please email me via Ebay if you would like the complete Boat History Report or the NADA approximate value, or with any other questions. You are welcome to see the boat in person. It is stored inside, at my warehouse in Gainesville, Florida. Serious buyers are welcome to have a marine survey done, if desired, provided it is scheduled in advance. Important to note I have this for sale in numerous ways in addition to Ebay, so I reserve the right to cancel this listing at anytime. Nada has the low retail on this boat at $22,570. I am offering at $16,950.00 or Best Offer. I've also attached a boat history report showing no known issues. Also included are a couple videos of me starting the engine and the engine compartment. It is smooth, sounds good, runs great. Also a couple videos of chubby me being pulled by my 16 year old Daughter on a tube. What a hoot we had this past summer on this boat!
