1988 Bayliner 4518 Motoryacht

This 1988 Bayliner 4518 is a 45-foot fiberglass pilothouse motoryacht powered by twin Hino diesel engines rated at 220 horsepower each. The semi-displacement hull design delivers comfortable cruising speeds of 8 to 10 knots, with the ability to increase speed when needed to manage weather or current. A 12 kilowatt generator and inverter-charger system provide electrical independence from shore power.

The pilothouse offers full visibility and direct access via a few steps to an upper flybridge helm. The layout includes a fully enclosed aft cockpit and sleeping berths for six, with space configured to separate guest accommodations from private quarters—suitable for both entertaining and extended cruising. A forced air diesel furnace supports year-round comfort.

The exterior gelcoat finish, trim, and canvas show in excellent condition with minimal weathering. The boat has been kept under cover for most of its life, which is evident in the preservation of its classic Pacific Northwest lines and overall appearance. The engines are described as low-hour examples of this proven powerplant.
