226 SSi WIDE TECH 
Chaparral's sensational 226 SSi is a mega does of everything that makes our Wide Tech™ design stand out over all other family bowrider sport boats. Aft, a unique Oasis Lounge is a breakaway departure from the full-width sun pad offered on our other SSi Wide Tech offerings. The innovative three-position lounge is ideal for strapping on water sports equipment and also folds flat or converts to a chaise when you want to work on your tan. Up front, a wide walkway leads to adult-sized bow seats with storage underneath and an ice chest forward. Built to stay looking new for years to come, the 226 features fiberglass liner construction for precise fit and finish. Kevlar reinforcement adds strength. Key options include a bow filler cushion, snap-in carpet, a custom wakeboard tower and a swim platform logo mat.

ON THE WATER
Roll the throttle forward and enjoy one of the best rides in family boating. The 226 takes to the water with engine options ranging from 260 to 300 horsepower. Low end acceleration is exceptional, mid-range cruise efficiency is among the best in this size range and there's no finer feeling than the thrill of excitement at top-end. High quality in every way, the 226 delivers confident control in challenging water conditions.
What's on your weekend agenda? Cruising. It doesn't get any better than the 226. Watersports? Name your game and the 226 is ready, willing and able. Shoreline get togethers? No bowrider in this size range can match the 226 when it comes to access, storage space, family fun or keeping the cold drinks and music flowing.
THE SSi LIFESTYLE
What sets the 226 apart from all of its SSi sisterships, is an innovative Oasis lounge and wraparound U-shaped cockpit seating. The boat is designed to let the good times roll and keep everyone onboard connected.
ANCHOR LOCKER
The forward anchor locker is big enough for a line and chain and features a locking cradle to prevent rattling. The Wide Tech design is enhanced with non-skid and flush-mount hardware to make boarding from the bow a breeze.
BOW SEATING
The adult-sized bowrider features best-in-class freeboard, passenger capacity and legroom. Full-length stainless steel grab rails are mounted for confident use both from inside the boat and from the dock.
BOW TABLE
An optional side mount table stows out of the way and can be positioned either in the bow or the main cockpit.
BOW STORAGE
There's loads of cargo space under all the bow seats. A sizeable insulated ice chest drains overboard so melted ice is never a problem at day's end. Our Wide Tech bow design features full backrest cushions, recessed drink holders and water resistant marine speakers.
CONSOLE STORAGE
Large carry-ons including fenders and lifejackets stow in console compartments that are also accessible by hinging backrest cushions in the bow.
HELM
The best ergonomics in boating includes a line-of-sight compass, arm and footrests and precision instrumentation to monitor all vital engine functions at just a glance. Illuminated accessory switches keep you up to speed day or night.
There's space in the middle of the dash for an optional 531 or 541 Garmin GPS system. Additionally, our optional Convenience Package adds a line-of-sight compass, digital depth gauge, transom tilt switch and stereo remotes at both the helm and transom.
GLOVE BOX
Designed to match the style of the driver's console, a locking port-side glove box provides secure storage for small personal items. A carpeted liner provides added protection.
INFLOOR STORAGE
The infloor ski locker features an RTM lid that is hinged for one-handed access. Inside, a rubber mat protects your equipment investment.
GRAB HANDLE
Molded recessed gunwales add cockpit space and include padded armrests, integrated drink holders and stainless steel grab handles that are accessible by anyone seated on the back couch or an observer swiveled aft.
COCKPIT STORAGE
Lift up the U-shaped seat cushions and you'll find enormous storage areas that are readily accessible. High quality 40-ounce Berber carpet with reinforced snaps and action backing is available as optional equipment.
WALK-THRU
Thanks to a multi-purpose transom walk-thru, you can transition from bow to stern without ever putting a soggy footprint on the upholstery.
WALK-THRU STORAGE
A huge storage locker in the transom walk-thru area provides convenient storage for water toys, accessories and large carry-ons.
3-POSITION SEAT
With it's innovative Oasis lounge and wraparound U-shaped cockpit seating, the 226 is a breakaway departure from it's smaller SSi sisterships that all feature a full-width sun pad design.

Is there anything better than having unlimited access to your own personal tanning salon? The Oasis lounge is wide enough for two adults to stretch out and enjoy the sun's rejuvenating rays.
