Chaperral 265 Ssi Power Boat Cabin Cruiser

I have owned Fox Lima for 3 years, she was brought in from Holland by the previous owner who is a friend of mine, where she had been dry stored in the winter and used on fresh water in the summer. She is in amazing condition for her age. My friend had a new trailer made to be able to collect her with winch and wash out hub system, it tows a dream and is in perfect condition. The engine as you can see is beautifully kept, it produces huge power and with the extra switchable side exhausts sounds incredible when you want her to. She is good for 50+mph, she has a bathing platform and lovely retracting polished cleats.

There is a full set of sheets/lines and fenders aboard along with a full hood and bimini as pictured. Clearly she is 12 years old and there are a few marks but i have had many compliments while I have owned her as to her condition. She has wonderful lines and sits beautifully on the water. The 8.1 GI Volvo is a far superior engine to the 5.7 which they were mainly fitted with, it is more powerful and much more economical. In total the hours are reading 240 and by her condition I believe them to be correct.

The forward cabin is a good size with toilet and shower and a couple of sinks both above and below. She sleeps 4 in comfort and has twin leisure batteries, split charge, fridge, cockpit lights, cabin spots and mood lighting, tube heaters and a holding tank and a marcerater for the toilet if used at sea. I replaced the marcerater last year and also had a full river certificate issued following inspection. I kept her on the river at York last season so she needed a river licence. Time has come to sell her sadly.

I'm not getting enough use and due to work commitments it is a shame to leave her in the shed. She needs an owner who will stretch her legs and give her plenty of use. I had a full service last year (less than 2 hours use ago). She also has removable cockpit carpets, over mats in the cabin and a transport cover. I will be sensible on price but I am confident you wont find a better one.

This model is a rare boat in the UK particularly with this engine option. Tender not included. I'm not a seasoned boater but please do call with any questions. She will be valeted and full of fuel ready for the season prior to sale. email Added Notes, things I forgot: Duo prop.Gleaming black above the waterline.
