The Chaparral 264 Sunesta WT 2013 vs Chaparral Boats 287 SSX 2022 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.

Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 380 hp for the Chaparral 264 Sunesta WT 2013 and 380 hp for the Chaparral Boats 287 SSX 2022. Real-world performance will come down more to which motor is actually bolted on, its load at the time, and whether it's a 4-stroke or 2-stroke setup. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 8 gal and 8 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.
