Outing Highlights

THE BOAT

24 ft, 240 horsepower, built for tow sports

The Chaparral bowrider brings a wakeboard tower, Bimini top, dining table and a step-thru bow to a roomy 12-passenger layout, making it a day-boat tuned for skiing, wakeboarding and tubing.

THE ROUTE

Explore the full length of Priest — including Upper Priest Lake

The rental allows you to cruise the entire lake system, giving you access to sheltered coves and the upper basin for long runs or quiet anchoring.

THE PRACTICALS

Fuel, parking and shore rules to know

The boat is delivered with a full tank and should be refilled before return; there is ample parking at the marina, anchors are provided and beaching is not permitted. For multi-day rentals the operator prefers you have a dock overnight to avoid daily pull-and-relaunch.

What the day feels like

What the day feels like

A typical outing is a long, social day on the water: load up at the rental shop, follow the operator to Bishops Marina for launch, then string together runs, tows and sheltered anchor stops across Upper Priest Lake — all from a boat sized for a dozen people and powered for serious wake and ski performance.

Suitability

Who it's for

Who this trip suits — and when to look elsewhere.

1
Large groups & familiesWith room for up to 12 people, the Chaparral is ideal for groups seeking a social day on the water where multiple riders and passengers can be accommodated.
2
Watersports enthusiastsBuilt for towing — wakeboard tower and 240 hp — the boat suits skiers, wakeboarders and tubers who want repeated runs and on-deck staging for gear.
3
AnglersNot a good match: fishing is not allowed on bowrider boats, so anglers should choose a different rental or vessel type.
4
Multi-day renters & overnight plansMulti-day bookings are available but the operator prefers renters who can keep the boat at a dock overnight; otherwise staff will need to pull and re-launch the boat each day.
