Bayliner DX2250 Deck Boats For Sale

The Bayliner DX2250 is the stern drive model in the DX series of deck boats, sharing its platform with the outboard-powered DX2200. This Bayliner 22 ft deck boat measures 21 feet 7 inches overall with an 8-foot 6-inch beam and carries a rated capacity of 11 people. Bayliner's beam-forward design pushes the full beam well into the bow, so the cockpit and bow seating feel notably wide for a 22' deck boat. It suits families who want the open deck space of a deck boat with the sportier feel of a bow rider, and it comes as a complete boat-and-motor package.

Standard power on the DX2250 is the Mercury 4.5-liter 200-horsepower stern drive, with a 4.5-liter 250-horsepower option for buyers running water sports, skiing or tubing. The hull carries a deep-V section that runs all the way to the front of the boat, with multiple strakes for stability, so it rides through chop rather than slapping on it like shallow-bowed deck boats. A skiing pylon is available, and the stern drive layout keeps the transom clear, opening up a large walkable space at the back of the boat.

At the helm, a 7-inch Simrad display handles instrumentation and engine data from the MerCruiser, paired with a Rockford Fosgate head unit with Bluetooth and two speakers. The captain gets a bolstered seat with slide and swivel, tilt steering, an ergonomic footrest, a side-mounted shifter and toggle switches for lights, bilge pump and horn. A depth finder is available, and a full windshield with side wings and a locking center panel can be optioned. A storage station beside the helm adds USB, 12-volt and auxiliary inputs.

The cockpit centers on Bayliner's beam-forward space, with a freshwater sink and food-prep area behind the captain's chair that can be optioned with a refrigerator and grill. The port side holds a large enclosed compartment usable for storage or an available marine head, and the companion seat has a three-position backrest that lowers flat or faces outward for anglers, with an optional 16-gallon live well underneath. An in-floor ski locker stows boards and gear, an in-floor cooler sits in the walkthrough, and there is dry storage under every seat. Flooring is non-skid standard, with teak mat and snap-in seagrass available.

The transom is one of the boat's defining features, with a full-beam integrated swim platform and an extended platform option that nearly doubles the usable space at the stern. Two telescoping boarding ladders are fitted, one at the bow off the anchor locker and one at the transom. The aft sun lounger includes built-in cup holders and phone trays with USB and 12-volt outlets, while a rear-facing bench flips forward into a sunpad. Rear-access storage compartments with water-management systems keep bumpers and gear dry. The bow lounge seats three facing aft with a filler cushion, dry storage beneath, LED split navigation lights and stainless steel mooring cleats at the bow, midship and transom.

Common options on boats for sale include an extreme sports tower that serves as a tow point and houses the anchor light and stowed bimini, plus the extended swim platform and upgraded engine. Bayliner backs the DX2250 with a limited lifetime structural hull warranty, a 10-year structural hull warranty to a second owner, a five-year deck warranty and a one-year parts and components warranty. Buyers searching for a Bayliner deck boat for sale near them should check engine hours and any dock or fender rash on used examples; the brand, building since 1957, positions the DX2250 as a value-oriented package.
