2016 Chaparral Vortex 243 VR

Year 2016
Length 24'3 ft

If you're expecting big things from the Chaparral 243 VR you won't be disappointed. Not in the least. Chaparral's flagship jet boat offering is big on performance, big on style and even bigger on comfort. The fact is no other jet boat compares. An enclosed fiberglass head, complete with a porta-pottie and opening portlight, allows day trips away from the dock. The bow is roomy and accommodating. A standard filler cushion converts the bow area to a huge playpen and a standard table is a plus while entertaining. Little things like stainless steel drink holders, LED cockpit lighting, molded footrests and a cockpit drainage system set the 243 Vortex apart. In the engine compartment, high output twin engine options ranging from twin 200 or 250 Rotax 4-TEC ECT will meet any need for speed. The standard Bluetooth sound system rocks the water and can be upgraded with an optional subwoofer, six-channel amp, and a transom remote. Want to join the latest surfing craze? An optional ballast system is an available, along with the optional award winning Aerial Surf Platform.
