310 Signature

With her distinctive styling and standard hardtop, the Chaparral 310 Signature offers boaters a sporty family cruiser with an impressive list of standard equipment. The layout of the 310 differs from most cruisers her size in that there’s no portside bridge deck lounger. Instead, an extra-wide companion seat (with flip-up bolsters) sits next to the helm—a design that eases the clutter around the companionway door. Standard features include an integrated swim platform, wet bar, transom shower, power engine room hatch, LED cockpit lights, tilt steering, transom gate, carry-on cooler, foredeck sun pad, cockpit table, trim tabs, and an aft-facing transom seat with storage under. Note that a forward hardtop hatch allows standing access through the opening windshield—no banged heads going forward. Below deck, the 310 Signature’s stylish interior sleeps 4–5 and features an L-shaped sofa whose center seatback forms an extension of the berth. Built on a Kevlar reinforced hull, twin 225hp 4.3L MerCruiser sterndrive engines cruise economically in the mid 20s and reach a top speed of nearly 40 knots.
