We have the 2003 Bayliner 265 Cierra Sun Bridge Cabin Cruiser with 2008 VIP Trailer for you to consider! Also, moored in a 30' Covered slip at Scorpion Bay! A very clean boat with a great owner and has an upgraded A/C 16000 BTU, 3 batteries. Power by a 5.0MPI Bravo 3, An upgraded Swim platform with boarding handles too. This entry-level cruiser combines sporty styling with the spaciousness of a broad 9'5" beam and the economy of a single, small-block engine. There's a lot to like about this boat. Bayliners are always considered a lot of boat for the money. The chief attribute of the 265 is space, and plenty of it. Indeed, her cockpit and interior dimensions are larger by far than many 27-foot boats. The mid-cabin layout is a model of space efficiency with the dinette cleverly integrated into the forward double berth. The galley is as big as you'll find in a boat this size with generous storage and enough counter space to actually be useful. A curtain offers a bit of privacy for those in the aft berth, and the standup head includes a marine toilet as well as a shower. Topside, the roomy cockpit of the 265 can seat six passengers without being crowded. Standard features include a transom shower, and a removable cockpit table. Unlike most trailerable cruisers, this Bayliner 265s has a 5KW Kohler Genset!!
The Bayliner 265 offers an express-style design, an efficient interior layout, and a long list of features for improved comfort, convenience and safety. It provides wide-beam spaciousness in both the cabin and the cockpit, in combination with the affordability and fuel efficiency of the small block 5.0MPI V-8 engine.
