Which hold value best

Share of asking price lost for each year of age. Shorter is better. The tick marks the same type of boat from other builders. Models need 20 boats across six build years, and a consistent fit, to be ranked.

The Chaparral 240 Signature holds value best of the range, losing 7.0% a year of age. The Chaparral 290 Signature loses the most, at 8.0%.

Questions about Chaparral prices

How much does a used Chaparral cost?

A used Chaparral asks a median of £35,500 across 349 boats listed since Aug 2020, in today's prices. The middle half ask between £21,500 and £58,500. These are asking prices, not sold prices.

Does a Chaparral hold its value?

Across the range, a used Chaparral loses about 7.2% of its asking price for each year of age, against 5.9% for the same types of boat from other builders. The Chaparral 240 Signature holds value best, at 7.0% a year.

Which Chaparral model loses value fastest?

Of the models with enough boats to rank, the Chaparral 290 Signature loses value fastest, at 8.0% a year of age.

Why is a Chaparral model missing a price?

We publish a model once five boats have been listed. 61 models are listed above with their count so far, including the Chaparral 19 H2O Sport, the Chaparral 232 Sunesta and the Chaparral 277 SSX, and will get a published figure when they reach five.
