    Bayliner 195: BoatTEST Review

    Reviewed by Jeff Hammond

    Overview

    The 2012 Bayliner 195 is an affordable 19-foot bow rider designed to deliver functionality without compromise. Bayliner focused on creating a well-thought-out layout that maximizes comfort, storage, and usability, making it an attractive option in its class.

    Exterior Design and Deck Features

    The Bayliner 195 features a molded-in swim platform equipped with a three-step reboarding ladder on the starboard side, complemented by a grab handle for ease of water exit. A centrally mounted ski tow-eye on the transom and high-mounted aft cleats positioned out of the trip zone enhance safety and convenience. The hull design includes molded-in contour lines that add visual appeal and dock presence. Performance-oriented elements such as an extended running surface beyond the out-drive collar and lifting strakes are incorporated to improve handling and efficiency.

    Interior Layout and Seating

    The bow seating area offers a complete wraparound bolster with seats spaced 17 inches apart, providing ample room for lounging with sufficient leg stretch. Storage is thoughtfully integrated beneath the side seats and within the console, accessible from the aft seatbacks secured by magnetic catches. The walkthrough is 17 inches wide, widening slightly as it ascends for comfort. The standard floor plan includes a back-to-back seat on the port side that folds flat to create a sunning area, which can be optionally replaced with a second bucket seat. The engine box is flanked by two forward-facing seats and features additional functionality such as a small storage compartment between drink holders and tie-down cleats for securing tubes. Both side seat cushions lift to form a full-beam sun pad atop the engine box, with storage compartments beneath.

    Helm and Controls

    The helm panel presents a clean, uncluttered design with white base gauges accented by chrome bezels and smaller engine gauges embedded within the speedometer. A dedicated position for an optional depth gauge is included, all set against a carbon fiber finish panel. Practical features include a drink holder to the right, a rubber-matted storage area to the left, and a sun shield overhead. Tilt steering is standard, and the engine controls, while positioned slightly high, allow the operator to rest their arm on the handle for fine speed adjustments. The bucket seat is comfortable, swivels, slides, and offers ample legroom beneath the console. Adjacent to the seat is a track system for mounting various optional accessories, and a midship cleat is conveniently located near the helm station.

    Storage and Additional Amenities

    Bayliner enhanced interior comfort by carpeting the bulwarks, creating a cozy atmosphere. Upholstery features a tasteful two-tone design, with speakers mounted high for optimal sound distribution. The console to port includes a recessed, matted area with a raised edge for quick storage of items like sunglasses, alongside a top-loading glove box. The glove box design also allows easy access to stereo controls, with a 12-volt supply and MP3 port conveniently located nearby.

    Power and Performance

    The Bayliner 195 offers engine options ranging from a 220 horsepower 4.3-liter engine to a more powerful 260 horsepower 5-liter engine. The engine hatch is supported by two gas-assist struts for effortless lifting and features substantial sound insulation underneath. Maintenance is facilitated by a low forward section of the engine compartment opening, and a fire extinguisher discharge port is thoughtfully integrated into the side of the engine hatch.

    Conclusion

    Overall, the 2012 Bayliner 195 demonstrates a commendable balance of affordability, functionality, and thoughtful design. Its well-appointed interior, practical storage solutions, and performance-enhancing hull features make it a versatile and appealing choice for boaters seeking a compact bow rider. Bayliner's attention to detail and user-friendly innovations contribute to a positive boating experience.
