This 1991 Bayliner 4588 is a 45-foot fiberglass motoryacht powered by twin Hino diesel engines producing 500 horsepower combined. The boat spent nearly all its life in fresh water across Michigan and Ohio, with only brief salt-water exposure during a Great Loop cruise. Engine hours total 2,250 with an average of 66 per year, and the diesels deliver approximately 2 miles per gallon.
The interior features three cabins and two heads arranged for comfortable cruising. Teak woodwork throughout the boat remains in excellent condition both inside and out, contributing to the yacht's warm, traditional character.
Between 2020 and 2021, the boat underwent substantial updates including new navigation electronics, a Splendide washer-dryer combination, galley refrigerator, Eartech communication headsets, and smart televisions. A Highfield tender with a 20-horsepower Tohatsu outboard was added, showing minimal use of under five hours. During this period, numerous onboard components were replaced, and an extensive collection of spare parts was assembled for the boat.
