same problem with my boat can't connect true Bluetooth with my phone, sxm radio option non functional, the whole screen is freezing up you need to restart the boat with a key to work.

Warning : keep the tow rope away from your boat, it will suck up and you'll basically done ( do not attempt reverse trick you will damage more) , ask me how i know, so no clean out plugs is a problem, and i think chapparel is misleading people with they're advertisement that no plugs no issue , i think its a down side

From Chapparal Website

(B) DRIVE SHAFT SLEEVE
Helps prevent the problem of debris, tow ropes and weeds becoming entangled with the drive shaft. Rivals can only try to fix the problem after it occurs.
So, did you figure out yet how to pair s phone for Bluetooth? Messed with it today and no luck!
 
I'd love to help but still a few weeks out from delivery. Keep us in the loop with the progress.
 
Boat is at the dealer right now, for two weeks undergoing sucked in rope damage, was told all my problems will be addressed, as well as my medallion unit , as soon as I know what was the glitch I will update you.

I've missed already

Appreciate that and hopefully all will be well so you can enjoy the rest of summer on the water!
 
Thank Youg guys

Does any one know what can be done to reduce tower vibration / banging when going over the wake in the turns at speed.
I would say 30ml it starts banging agains the haule of the boat. Thinking to put some foam in between .

Make sure you are fully locked in place. My tower doesn't move, it's easy to have it appear to be locked in and down but check that out

@Bryan mazanec - somewhere, I found a link to our radio's manual and I know I saved the link, but can not find it anywhere. i'll keep looking. But, I know to sync a phone to the radio, you press and hold the middle of the large main dial on the radio (the unit in the "glove box"). Have your phone in discoverable mode and the radio should find sync up. I just did this a couple weeks ago, when I got a new iphone. real fast. I'll see if I can find that link though to the radio manual and share it here.

Thanks, I got it from the manual below.
 
Yes a 2016 203 VRX. Viper unit is for the Medallion system which I also have. The manual I posted is for the radio unit under the "glove box" on port side.
 
I'll post the Rotax engine info but I have to scan it first.
 
Oh okay, thank you for clarifying that for me!!
 
Thanks!! Love the boat, disappointed in the delivery and documentation. Not like a car when they walk you thru all the features!
Thanks we are having fun with it. My dealer did about an hour walk through at the showroom and he went with us for another hour on water. The vortex website has owner manual for download. Did you get a DVD in the chap bag?

Yes I did see a dvd in there and the dealer said he would send me the engine manual so I'm all set for now!
 
My medallion unit will be replaced some times in the future , medallion system is on a back order nationwide , so maybe after this boating season. I have a feeling chaparral pushing them out so they can make a sale

Yeah, I am not impressed with it or maybe don't know how to use it. When navigating, the screen doesn't more as the boat moves off the screen, you have to move the view manually.
