About the 2017 Chaparral 18 SKI & FISH

Just about everyone is practicing some derivation of an American fishing style these days. That makes this crossover Chaparral a fitting bowrider for today’s Aussie fish-and-family boater. You get the softcore features with some serious bow-to-stern (soft-plastic-lure) fishability. The ride is also something to crow about with a mere 135hp 3.0L sterndrive.

Great package full of fishing and family appeal
>> Plenty of kit so the serious angler won’t feel cheated
>> Top fit, finish and overall build quality
>> Surprisingly good performance from just a 135hp 3.0L MerCruiser
>> It might be Chaparral’s entry-level boat but they haven’t dumbed it down
