Chaparral 23 Surf: BoatTEST Review

Reviewed by Jeff Hammond

Overview

The Chaparral 23 Surf is an enhanced version of the well-known 23 SSI model, now equipped with specialized surf features designed to improve wake surfing capabilities. This model integrates surf-specific components such as ballast systems, surf gates, and a new propulsion system to deliver a versatile and enjoyable family boat experience.

Exterior Design and Surf Features

The 23 Surf includes an optional EFX2 electrically folding arch with diamond back swiveling board racks, which provide a swiveling tow point 81 inches above the deck and an all-around navigation light. The arch can fold down to allow operation under low bridges. The boat supports bimini tops both forward and aft. Central to the surf package is a 425-pound Fat Sack ballast installed in the center index storage compartment. The Malibu surf gate system, controlled via a 7-inch Medallion touchscreen, allows the operator to select the surfing side port or starboard on the fly, with minimal lean and a clean wake. The boat also features snap-in C-deck matting over non-skid fiberglass and 37-ounce Naugahyde upholstery with a UV-protected top coat and custom embroidery. The aft seating area includes a U-shaped cockpit with a 70-quart insulated cooler that drains overboard, and a sun pad with innovative ratcheting seat backs that convert into aft-facing seats or chaise lounges. The stern has a 23-inch swim platform with a concealed reboarding ladder and an optional 25-inch extended platform. The bow area offers a 21-inch wide walkthrough with storage compartments, a V-lounge seating area convertible to a sun pad, insulated ice chest with removable cover, and well-placed grab rails. Two 5-inch pull-up cleats flank the anchor locker hatch, which features a lift-and-lock latch with a wire support to prevent overextension.

Helm and Controls

The helm is equipped with the new Mercury Bravo 4S surf drive paired with a 6.2-liter, 300-horsepower MerCruiser engine. The helm layout includes two analog gauges for speed and tachometer, a steering wheel mounted on a tow base with touch buttons on both sides, and a Mercury digital throttle and shift with a conveniently placed ignition away from the knee strike zone. The helm seat is a wraparound style with an open lumbar area for ventilation, a flip-up bolster, and the ability to swivel and slide. The observer seat shares similar features, and both swivel to face the cockpit seating area. The Medallion touchscreen provides comprehensive controls including surf settings, ballast management, engine diagnostics, moving map navigation, camera controls, and audio system management.

Power and Performance

Powered by a 6.2-liter MerCruiser 300-horsepower engine driving the Mercury Bravo 4S outdrive with forward-facing props, the Chaparral 23 Surf achieves a top speed of 44.7 miles per hour at 5150 RPM. Optimal cruising speed is 22.2 miles per hour at 3000 RPM, delivering a fuel burn of seven gallons per hour and a fuel economy of 3.1 miles per gallon, resulting in a range of approximately 128 statute miles with a 10% fuel reserve from the 45-gallon tank. The boat planes quickly in 3.4 seconds and maintains plane down to 12.2 miles per hour. Acceleration to 20 miles per hour takes about six seconds, and reaching 30 miles per hour occurs in 9.4 seconds. The forward-facing props contribute to high sensitivity in trim and steering, requiring careful adjustment to avoid porpoising but providing responsive and agile handling with minimal chine walk during turns. The hull features a 20-degree dead rise, which can result in some hull slap when crossing wakes or waves at high speed, so moderate speeds are recommended in choppy conditions.

Surfing Capability

While not designed as a competitive surf boat, the 23 Surf produces a clean, well-formed wave suitable for intermediate-level surfers. The Malibu surf gate package effectively shapes the wake with minimal lean and allows switching surfing sides on the fly. The combination of ballast and surf gate creates an ideal surfing wave with a good crest and clean face, enabling trick maneuvers and enjoyable wake surfing.

Conclusion

The Chaparral 23 Surf successfully expands the versatility of the 23 SSI platform by incorporating surf-specific features without compromising the comfort and functionality expected from a family boat. Its responsive handling, innovative surf controls, and thoughtful design elements make it a compelling choice for recreational boaters seeking both cruising and wake surfing capabilities in a 23-foot package.
