Overview
The Chaparral 277 SSX represents a fresh evolution of the SSX series, introducing a new design language that emphasizes a lower profile and refined styling details. This model blends innovative features with the brand's hallmark quality and performance, aiming to deliver an enhanced boating experience both in aesthetics and functionality.
Exterior Design and Deck Layout
The boat's exterior showcases a redesigned arch and sleek side profiles. Boarding from the swim platform, which extends 33 inches and features a non-skid surface, reveals integrated grab rails with a tow hook and multiple 6-inch pull-up cleats strategically placed along the sides. The stern seating is notably versatile, offering a convertible arrangement that transitions from forward and aft-facing seats into a spacious chaise lounge measuring 4 feet 4 inches by 4 feet 2 inches, complemented by an adjacent jump seat for social interaction. The starboard corner houses a four-step reboarding ladder, and a characteristic stereo remote with a transom trim switch is conveniently located. Access to the cockpit is through a starboard-side acrylic door that locks securely and, when open, folds flush against the bulwarks, maintaining a 15-inch passageway. This door also conceals the main electrical panel with battery switches and jump-start lugs.
Cockpit and Seating Comfort
Inside the cockpit, seating is abundant and thoughtfully arranged with L-shaped lounges to port and stern, complemented by opposing seating and two swivel bucket seats for the captain and passenger. The upholstery demonstrates Chaparral's commitment to quality, featuring custom embroidery, tritone materials, diamond stitching, and varied foam densities for enhanced comfort. Storage solutions are ample, including a 36-quart cooler beneath one seat and deep compartments beneath others. The bulwarks incorporate recessed stainless steel drink holders, grab rails, and speakers, all designed to maximize comfort without impeding seating space.
Helm and Functional Features
The helm area is equipped with identical bucket seats for captain and passenger, featuring flip-up bolsters, wraparound sides, and ventilation for comfort. Adjustments are conveniently located at the front of the seats for ease of use. Between the seats lies a deep storage compartment with gas-assist struts, providing additional organization. The observer's side includes a grab handle, recessed armrest, lockable glove storage, and multiple storage spaces. A well-appointed head compartment offers a solid surface countertop with a stainless steel sink and pull-out sprayer, an opening port light for ventilation, and a standard porta-potty with an optional upgrade to an electric flush toilet with pump-out. The electrically actuated arch tower collapses at the push of a button, with all components housed within the base for easy transfer and fabrication.
Bow and Windlass System
The bow seating is deep and comfortable, featuring curved seat backs, flip-up armrests, and a pedestal table mount that allows for flexible dining arrangements. Storage is integrated beneath all seats, including a self-draining built-in cooler located forward. Cushions are hinged for easy access. The helm’s all-glass dash includes dual 7-inch Simrad Evo II displays angled toward the operator, surrounded by logically grouped, lighted push-button controls. The tilt-mounted steering wheel features a floating logo that remains upright regardless of wheel position. Forward deck access reveals a non-skid hatch secured by lift and lock latches, opening to reveal a Lumar windlass with chain and rope rode leading to a through-stem anchor roller equipped with a stainless steel plow anchor. Additional features include cleats, fuel fills on both sides with ventilation capability, and navigational lighting.
Engine and Mechanical Layout
The engine compartment, located beneath the aft seat, is easily accessible via a handle lift. It houses a 6.2-liter Mercruiser engine producing 350 horsepower, paired with a Bravo 3 outdrive and a 26-pitch propeller. The installation offers spacious access to both sides, with the steering pump positioned on the starboard side and house and start batteries, along with a 15-gallon water tank, situated to port.
Performance and Handling
With an overall length of 27 feet, a beam of 8 feet 6 inches, and a draft of 35 inches, the Chaparral 277 SSX has an empty weight of 5,500 pounds. During testing with 37% fuel and two people aboard, the estimated test weight was 6,100 pounds. The boat achieved a top speed of 50.8 miles per hour at 5,415 RPM. Optimal cruising speed was recorded at 29.9 miles per hour at 3,500 RPM, with a fuel consumption of 9.2 gallons per hour, translating to 3.2 miles per gallon and a cruising range of approximately 233 miles while maintaining a 10% fuel reserve. The vessel planes in an average of 3.6 seconds, accelerates to 20 miles per hour in 5.4 seconds, and reaches 30 miles per hour in 7.5 seconds. Handling characteristics are exemplary, with smooth, graceful turns, minimal spray, no chine walk, and no prop ventilation even under trim, reflecting the brand's reputation for superior control and ride quality.
Conclusion
The Chaparral 277 SSX successfully integrates contemporary styling, innovative seating configurations, and premium materials with robust performance and handling. Its thoughtful design elements, from convertible seating to advanced helm instrumentation and efficient mechanical layout, position it as a versatile and comfortable sport boat. This model continues Chaparral's tradition of delivering boats that combine aesthetic appeal with functional excellence on the water.
