Bayliner is known for putting Families and Fun First

The Bayliner 325 continues this tradition with features and options that make ease of operation and fun a priority. For example, a unique swiveling double helm seat can be rotated out of the way, transforming the cockpit into an open area that can easily become a dance floor if the mood strikes. In this case, wide-open space is the beginning of wide-open fun. There simply is nothing else like it in this segment!

The cabin features extensive seating and legroom with continuous seating along the port side. While the 325 offers a table for meals and games, guests are not forced into a traditional cramped, opposed seating configuration. There is plenty of room for eight people to sit and socialize or watch TV without having to climb over beds or each other in search of a place to relax.

Of course, when it does come time to sleep, the 325 offers a private berth amidships and a convertible V-berth in the bow with privacy curtain. A flat screen TV provides perfectly relaxing entertainment at the end of the day, before nodding off with the aid of a gentle rocking motion that only an evening on the water can provide.

A Fully-Featured Galley

Bayliner's 325 Cruiser - Fully Featured GalleyWhen the crew awakes the next morning, a fully-featured galley is ready for breakfast preparations with a dual-burner electric stove and a microwave.

A 110-volt outlet is perfect for plugging in a coffee machine to fill the cabin with aromas sure to wake anyone still sleeping. If coffee is not their thing, your crew can always wake up with a warm shower in the head. The use of modular construction for the bathroom means that the interior is seamless, with no cracks or crevices for water to get into for easy wipe-down.

When it’s time to pull anchor, a standard windlass makes it easy to get underway. Easy-to-reach battery switches and fender storage make departing or returning to the dock a no-hassle affair.

Standard with 500 Horsepower and Optional 750

Bayliner's 325 Cruiser - HelmThe Bay liner 325 comes standard with 500 horsepower, courtesy of twin 5.7 liter MerCruiser engines. Additional engine options range up to a whopping 750 horsepower from twin 496 big-block engines. An optional electric engine hatch lift makes it a breeze to access the engines whether you want to perform routine maintenance or just admire all that horsepower! Regardless of which engine you choose, once you raise the anchor, you’ll be well on your way to fun.

The Focus is on Entertainment

While the 325 is built with features that make it easy to entertain guests, like an optional refrigerator on the sun deck and a 36-quart removable cooler in an out-of-the-way niche, you may find that its powerful engines and emphasis on fun mean that you’ll be the one being entertained! A generous swim step on the back provides plenty of room to bring along a tube or two, and built-in speakers in the radar arch can provide the perfect background score to the howls of delight from those being towed on tubes.

The Best Just got Better!: Bayliner's 195

The Best Just got Better!

The best-selling lineup of runabouts in the boating industry is gaining a significant addition in 2005 with the introduction of the all-new Bayliner 195. Taking its place alongside revolutionary boats like the Bayliner 175 and 185, the all-new 195 sets a new benchmark for family runabouts. Designed around the cornerstones of fun, family and hassle-free operation, the 195 explores new boundaries in fun and value.

From stern to bow, the Bayliner 195 is designed for fun. Beginning at the stern, the 195 features a full-length, integrated fiberglass swim platform with a telescoping three-step ladder that makes it easy to re-board the boat, making it a perfect place to initiate a cannonball contest. And you won’t catch your toes on the ladder preparing for your epic jump, as it folds neatly out of the way below the swim step surface when not in use.

Bayliner's 195 - Fun and ValueWhen the cannonball contest has been decided, you might be ready to rest and catch some sun. The cushion on the engine hatch is removable for sure footing as you enter the boat from the transom.

The 195 offers two lounging options: the starboard cockpit seating can be deployed to a fully reclined position and the transom seats can be raised to create a full-beam sunpad across the back. This modular seating arrangement offers the best of both worlds, offering more floor and storage space than boats with fixed sunpads, while still providing plenty of space to stretch out and relax. The Bayliner 195 offers a standard carpeted floor in the cockpit with an optional fiberglass liner available.

The helm features attractive and functional gauges in a brushed metal housing. Just below, polished metal switchboards are ergonomic and simple, helping make the 195 easy to operate. On the port side, the dash features a lockable glove box and waterproof AM/FM Stereo with CD controller. The port and starboard dash pods are both integrated into the deck, providing exceptional strength and preventing key components like the steering system and windshield from working loose over time.

Bayliner's 195 - Storage is AbundentStorage is abundant in the cockpit, thanks to an oversized locker beneath the floor, built-in storage in the gunnels and even more storage under the bow seating.

The bow even features dedicated anchor storage, with an anchor hold-down and plenty of space for lines and chain, a unique feature in this segment! With plenty of room for skis, wakeboards, tubes, ropes and vests, the 195 continues Bayliner’s emphasis on families and fun.

The 195 has more interior space than you would expect for a boat of its size as a result of Bayliner’s innovative Beam Forward Design. This is especially evident in the spacious bow, where there’s plenty of space for two adults to stretch out. Bayliner’s emphasis on space, fun and functionality has made it the best-selling brand of runabouts for more than five years. After all, who doesn’t want more boat for the money?

With an overall length of 19-feet and a beam of 7-feet, 11-inches, the 195 strikes an ideal balance between large interior space and a size that’s easy to tow with most SUVs and store in most garages. The Bayliner 195 comes with a standard single-axel trailer with brakes and swing-away tongue and an overall towing weight of just more than 3,500 pounds, making it as easy to move on land as it is on the water.

And boy does this boat move on the water! The boat comes standard with a powerful and economical V-6 engine to power the fun. With plenty of power to pull skiers or tubers, the 195 still maintains a range of more than 135 miles, so you don’t have to come in several times a day to fill-up. There are three optional engines offered on the 195, including an impressive 260 horsepower multiport-injected 5.0 L V-8. These optional engines can blur the line between boat and rocket!

With contemporary design, an impressive set of standard features and new eye-catching graphics, the Bayliner 195 will definitely stand out at the dock. Of course Bayliner’s tradition of economical pricing makes the all-new 195 even more outstanding. The Bayliner 195 takes its place alongside the 175, 185, 205 and 225 as the best selling lineup of runabouts in boating. The best just got better!
