Boat Details
Description
The Chaparral Signature 31 is a very sophisticated and stylish express cruiser for her size range and era. Enter via the integral fiberglass platform and walk thru transom door to the spacious cockpit with aft bench seat (retractable and stored in the transom bulkhead to make a large open aft area), wrap around raised seat to port and bench helm seat to starboard. The cockpit also features a full canvas and isinglass enclosure, with screens on the rear panels, hot and cold shower washdown and wide side decks for easy access to the foredeck. The main cabin features the main berth forward, well appointed galley to port and a convertible wrap around dinette to starboard, and guest mid cabin aft, under the cockpit sole. There is abundant storage throughout the boat. Fitted with twin Mercruiser 5.7 Liter stern drives and Bravo 3 duoprop outdrives with less than 500 hours, she will cruise in the low-20s and top out in the mid-30s. A 5 KW Westerbeke generator, AC/heat provide for extended cruising and overnight anchoring. Boat was hauled at local boat yard in late 2023 for fresh bottom paint, anodes and outdrive service and paint, as well as engines serviced.
