Maybe they worked the surcharge into the MSRP for 2023?

We're lucky to have a slip, so no need to trailer ever. I'm not sure I'd enjoy the stress of trailering and launching. Thanks for the warm welcome.

Thanks for the reply. Our first boat was a 2021 Chaparral 23ssi. We ended up using it way more than expected, over 100 hours so far. We're looking to upgrade in size, luxury, and features and the R8 covers all those bases. The R6 would be the logical next step, but from experience on our lake 27'-28 ...

Is over 20% off MSRP common? I'm at 10%, getting to 20% seems like it would be tough to accomplish. My first boat from this dealer, and first Cobalt.
