Well add me to the list of crossovers from the other place. Nothing bad to say about the other site but it does appear to have less recent traffic (still a good source of info though).
Always good to connect with other Chaparral owners. I have a 2000 285 SSI (that is currently in the shop...bummer) and boat on Lake Erie from Catawba / Port Clinton Oh where i live now. I bought the boat from original owner in 2017 when I lived in IL (it spent its time on Chain of Lakes with him). It is a great boat for choppy Erie...heavy and twin Mag 350's move it well (at least until recently...that is why it is in the shop). Anyway looking to new discussions....
