The 2003 Bayliner 285 is a single-engine cruiser built on a wide beam design that delivers the spaciousness typically found in larger models. Power comes from a 2024 MerCruiser 383 Magnum Stroker engine rated at 350 hp, paired with a 2023 Bravo 3 outdrive and transom assembly. Both the engine and drive unit have minimal operating hours. The boat reaches a maximum speed of around 30 knots with a cruising speed near 22 knots, supported by a 102-gallon fuel tank for extended range.
Below deck, the cabin accommodates six berths comfortably and features an upgraded interior with abundant natural light from multiple windows and portlights. The galley includes a refrigerator, microwave, and dinette that converts to a bed. The master cabin has an upgraded bed with memory foam mattress and a television. A separate head with shower and vanity serves the accommodation spaces, supported by a 6-gallon hot water tank.
Equipment includes a Garmin 5-inch GPS chartplotter, radar arch, air conditioning and heating, AM/FM/CD stereo, and a mooring cover. Deck features comprise a Bimini top, fold-up rear bench seating, and removable cockpit carpets. The boat has been fitted with new bottom paint, two batteries with selector switch, and benefits from substantial storage including a hanging closet. Recent upgrades throughout the yacht reflect ongoing investment in the vessel's systems and furnishings.
