Bayliner Trophy Boats For Sale

Bayliner Trophy boats are center console fishing platforms built to double as family dayboats, a balance that runs through the current lineup from the Trophy 22 CC and the side-console T22SC up to the larger Trophy 24 CC. The reborn Trophy brand pitches itself against the idea that Bayliner is only a budget builder, packing serious fishing features into hulls that still seat up to 10 people. The 22-footers suit bay running, inshore work and protected coastal water out to roughly five to ten miles, with the smaller models rated for moderate seas rather than long offshore runs. If you want a Bayliner Trophy fishing boat that the family can also use for swimming, cruising and towing tubes, this is the niche it fills.

The Trophy 22 CC measures 22 feet 7 inches with an 8-foot-6 beam and an 18-degree deadrise, and weighs about 4,000 pounds off the trailer or 4,942 pounds rigged on its galvanized trailer. It carries a 65-gallon fuel tank and a self-bailing cockpit. Power runs from a 150-horsepower Mercury up to a 300-horsepower maximum; a 150 Mercury pushed the boat to a top speed of 34 mph and came up on plane easily, while a 200-horsepower Mercury on the T22SC reached around 40 mph with a quick hole shot, little bow rise and smooth hard turns at 30 mph. The larger Trophy 24 CC runs a 250-horsepower Mercury V8, carries 22 degrees of deadrise, and tops out in the mid-40 mph range. The lower 18-degree deadrise on the 22 trades some rough-water performance for added stability at anchor and at rest.

The helm is clean and Simrad-based across the range. The T22SC uses a 9-inch Simrad touchscreen with room for a second 9-inch unit, plus a tilt-adjustable steering wheel, wireless phone charger, Rockford Fosgate stereo and a full wraparound windshield with uninterrupted sight lines for a 5-foot-11 driver seated. The 22 CC can be ordered with a 7-inch Simrad running Mercury VesselView for engine data, GPS, depth and fish finding, an adjustable wheel and a Bluetooth stereo. The 24 CC steps up to dual Simrad displays, Lenco trim tabs and bolster-style helm seats. A foldable T-top is offered to cut overall height for garage storage and trailering.

For fishing, the Trophy walkaround layout puts rod holders on the T-top and in both gunnels, with rod storage along the sides. The 22 CC comes standard with two livewells, and rear seats fold flat to open casting platforms or flip up with high backrests when the boat is loaded. Extended swim platforms run nearly 2.5 feet on each side with a four-step ladder, and a removable ski pylon adds tow-sport use. The 24 CC adds a 15-gallon transom livewell, a 21-gallon livewell at the leaning post and two 6-foot insulated fish boxes. The T22SC carries an 18-gallon transom livewell, a built-in ice box/fish box, eight standard cup holders, a battery switch forward of the transom walkthrough, and a 12-volt and USB charger in the cockpit.

A defining feature is the beam-forward hull, which carries the topside beam well forward like a deck boat to expand bow space. The Trophy combines its consoles into one wide side console, which opens up a large head compartment under the helm for a 22-foot boat along with a double-wide captain's chair and independent flip-up bolsters. The bow offers padded seating, storage under the seats on gas-assist struts, an anchor locker with a pull-up cleat, and a comfort-package option of filler cushions that convert the area to a sun pad. A freshwater shower, exterior and underwater lighting, and a stainless-steel package are among the available options.

Pricing is a core draw: the Trophy 24 CC starts around $65,000 to $66,000 and runs into the low $100,000s heavily optioned, while new 22 CC models have been seen in the low $60,000s. Used Bayliner Trophy boats for sale turn up well-equipped, including roughly one-year-old examples with around 20 hours near $45,000. The light weight makes these easy to tow behind a midsize truck or a 5,000-pound-capacity SUV with no wide-load concerns at the 8-foot-6 beam. When shopping, weigh the 18-degree deadrise against your typical sea conditions, and consider the higher horsepower options if you plan to run farther from shore.
