Broker's Comments

Stunningly presented single engine cruiser! She has been meticulously maintained for the last 14 years. This Bayliner 285 offers great space inside and out with a nice light airey feel.
End of April 2021 the engine was serviced, she was antifouled and polished. She has also had new engine manifolds, risers and elbows (this alone will save the next owner around £3k), new batteries, new cockpit carpets and cabin runner carpets, new toilet pump and sink taps.
Videos will be added to this listing shortly.
