Overview
About this vessel
Little Grey is a 2009 Chaparral 256 SSi that has been carefully maintained by her current owners since 2021, with an extensive documented service history and significant mechanical investment that gives buyers confidence in one of the most important aspects of any used boat - the engine and drivetrain.
Powered by a Mercury MerCruiser 350 MAG V8 delivering strong performance and solid ride that have made the Chaparral 256 SSi one of the most respected premium bowriders in its class. Whether cruising Singapore's Southern Islands, enjoying watersports or spending the afternoon at anchor with family and friends, she offers generous seating, practical storage and the quality feel Chaparral is known for.
Rather than simply carrying out routine servicing, the current owners have invested consistently in preventative maintenance. Over the past four years the boat has benefited from regular professional servicing together with substantial mechanical work including Bravo III sterndrive servicing and trim system repairs, new impeller, hydraulic hose replacement, exhaust manifold and riser servicing, new starter motor, new alternator, new batteries and a full engine service. In early 2025, an independent marine survey identified several maintenance items, all of which were professionally rectified and subsequently confirmed by the surveyor.
The cockpit upholstery has also been completely replaced, giving the seating a fresh, modern appearance. As expected on a boat of this age, there are some cosmetic areas that a new owner may choose to improve over time, including sections of the synthetic teak flooring that are lifting, while the manual toilet has not been used in recent years and the freshwater pump supplying the cockpit sink requires replacement. None of these items prevent the boat from being enjoyed immediately and they are reflected in the asking price.
The spacious layout includes wrap-around cockpit seating, a walk-through windscreen providing easy access to the bow seating area, an enclosed compartment housing a manual toilet, a cockpit wet bar with sink and an integrated swim platform with telescopic boarding ladder, making her equally suited to entertaining, day cruising and watersports.
Little Grey is currently dry-stored at Republic of Singapore Yacht Club, helping to minimise hull fouling and long-term wear compared with boats kept permanently afloat. Subject to RSYC membership and marina approval, the dry stack berth may also be transferable to the new owner.
For buyers seeking a quality American-built sports boat with documented maintenance, sensible ownership and plenty of enjoyable boating still ahead, Little Grey represents an attractive opportunity.
