HIGHLIGHTS
- MAIN CABIN-With 44 of headroom, the cabin sleeps two and includes a hideaway porta-pottie and plush carpet.
- ERGONOMIC HELM- Youll find full
instrumentation, a tilt wheel and easy to identify rocker switches on
the dash.You can operate the JBL CD sound system from the cabin, the
dash or via transom remote control.
- ENTERTAINMENT CENTER- The cockpit mini
entertainment center includes a sink, faucet, pressure water and a
stainless steel grab rail that doubles as a towel holder. A removable
Igloo cooler is anchored firmly in place.
- ACTIVITY PLATFORM WITH TRUNK-
Stow bulky items including lines, fenders and water toys in a transom
locker that is hinged and well supported. Cockpit storage can be found
in the galley as well as in the over-sized in-floor ski locker
The cuddy cabin is roomy and remarkably bright and airy inside, thanks to a large safety glass hatch on the roof. An impressive 44 of sit-up cabin headroom is a plus. The hatch is also ideally located to allow easy access to an outside bow storage compartment where the anchor is stowed. The cabin is fully carpeted, floor to ceiling and Chaparral backs the carpet with a thin layer of insulation. A portable head is stored in a niche near the stairs that lead into the cabin and rolls out on its own tracks for use. The location allows for plenty of room, and you dont have to remove any of the cushions on the V-berth as in some other boats.
Comfort and Room Passengers will enjoy plenty of room on board. The captains seat is adjustable for standing or sitting. A bench seat that runs the full width at the stern is option, that our boat has. A sink located behind the captains chair is also part of the package, as is a 25-quart cooler, which stores under the sink. A nice touch is a removable container for the water supply. You can take it out and fill it onshore.
The boats fit and finish is excellent, and the choices of materials feel and look good. All of the electrical circuits are protected by marine-quality circuit breakers not fuses and are easy to access. Stainless steel fittings are used throughout, and the whole boat is clearly designed for years of heavy use.
A large folding door makes it easy to enter the cabin. There is another door at the stern, much like what is found on deckboats and larger cabin cruisers, which provides access to a large ski platform. The bow deck above the cabin is also easy to get to. Steps leading to the center opening windshield are built into the port side of the command console.
At the Controls Chaparrals designers clearly spent some time on the command console. The instruments are laid out logically and are all easy to read at a glance.
Boaters especially like the darker flat tan finish of the dash cover which prevents glare on the instrument panel. Also, the woodgrain surface surrounding the instruments is not made of a cheap plastic. Instead, it has been molded onto aluminum for durability and to prevent cracking and peeling.
Enjoying the ride is also part of Chaparrals engineering appeal. Chaparrals extended V-hull cuts the water easily and provides a smooth ride over the water, even in choppy conditions, much like that in a high-performance bass boat.
At the stern, just in front of the extended ski platform, is a large storage bin much like the trunk on a car. It is large enough to stow all of your skiing gear. Overall, storage is plentiful on board.
Engine Access Access to the engine is excellent. The sturdy cover is easy to raise and lower and theres ample space to reach all sides of the engine. The battery is located in its own compartment on the starboard side at the stern while the hydraulics for the power tilt and trim were in an opposite compartment.
Handling With the standard power steering, the 215 SS takes turns crisply with little effort, which is ideal for sharp turns in narrow waterways while pulling a skier. The hull is part of the performance design that allows the boat to get on plane quickly. Skiers will find the 215 SS a joy as the boat leaves behind little wake.
The 215 SS has a lot going for it. The boat is nicely styled, roomy and comfortable for up to 11 passengers. The cuddy cabin can comfortably sleep two for those overnight adventures, and as a multi-purpose family boat. The quality of construction and attention to details are clearly part of the package Chaparral put togetherand should provide years of fun for any buyer.

Importing a Boat to Australia
We have some of the best rates for RORO-shipping to Australia in the U.S. and we serve the ports of Brisbane, Adelaide, Port Kembla, Fremantle, and Melbourne. Whether you are a repeat customer or a first-time buyer, heres a few tips and reminders about buying, shipping, and importing boats and yachts to Australia from the U.S.
Finding the right boat.Buying a boat from another country often means dealing with people that you never met or dealt with in the past. Theres tons of free classified ads and Craigs list-type re-advertisers on the internet with deals just too good to be true. If it sounds too good, then, youd guessed it, it probably is a scam.
Do your research. Be realistic. Partner up with a Pro (like us).
We suggest you deal with us. Each week we get shipping, export, and certification inquiries from some of the countrys well respected marine dealers. We work in close cooperation with country-wide brand name retailers such as Marinemax and with the brand stores of Regal, Chaparral, Monterey, Bayliner, Larson just to mention a few.
We are a fully licensed Non Vessel Operating Common Carrier by the Federal Maritime Commission and as such we operate our own in-house shipping company. We have exclusive contracts with some of the largest steamship companies in the world. As one of the rather few NVOCCs we have the authority to buy and resell space on ocean-going cargo ships and issue our own bills of lading. What does this mean for you? As an individual? Well, by contacting us directly you are likely to save considerable time and money by dealing directly with the contract holder (as opposed to a string of middlemen).
Buying a boat directly from us or through our brokerage divisionBoats International, Inc. is our own in-house discount boat dealership. We buy bulk trade-ins from the big retailers but we also buy from banks and individuals as well. For the past 20+ years our focus have been to absorb distressed inventory and floor-plan boats from cash-strapped dealers and resell these locally and overseas. As we now are completing our store expansion project(September, 2011) we will be able to take on even more inventory then in the past and also have space over to showcase brokerage and consignment boats.

The governing body is the Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service (AQIS) which is part of the Australian Governments Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry. Depending on the geographical location of the boat and the required preparation of the vessel we can either prepare the boat for export to Australia while underway, or we can have it completed at our marina in Pompano Beach, Florida.

ISPM-15 No Worries Mate We Fumigate All Wooden Cradles & Provide Proof of FumigationInternational Standards For Phytosanitary Measures No. 15 (ISPM 15) is an International Phytosanitary Measure developed by the International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC) that directly addresses the need to treat wood materials of a thickness greater than 6mm, used to ship products between countries. Its main purpose is to prevent the international transport and spread of disease and insects that could negatively affect plants or ecosystems. ISPM 15 affects all wood packaging material (pallets, crates, dunnages, etc.) requiring that they be debarked and then heat treated or fumigated with methyl bromide and stamped or branded,[1] with a mark of compliance. This mark of compliance is colloquially known as the wheat stamp. Products exempt from the ISPM 15 are made from alternative material, like paper, plastic or wood panel products (i.e. OSB, hardboard, and plywood).Customs Broker Fees & Destination Charges in AustraliaTheres tons of websites out there claiming to be the know-it-all for import questions concerning boats & yachts to Australia. Fortunately, we are not one of them. While we can recommend quite a few competent companies in Australia it is ultimately up to you to pick a customs partner in your home port. As is true for all facets of our business we believe that there are no shortcuts to sustained success in business (or life for that matter). That said we recommend that you seek the advice of an Australian Customs Broker who is licensed by the Customs Brokers and Forwarders Council of Australia Inc CBFCA-Australia Website to inquire about recent legal and import changes pertaining to your planned import.
