2007 Bayliner 197

The Bayliner 197 is a 19-foot deck boat built around an open, flexible layout that prioritizes usable space and social gathering. The design centers on wraparound lounging areas in the cockpit that convert to form an expansive sun lounge, making it suited to family outings and entertaining.

Powered by a single 120-horsepower MerCruiser gasoline engine, the boat measures 8 feet across the beam and is constructed in fiberglass. The straightforward, open-plan configuration keeps the focus on comfort and interaction rather than enclosed cabins.
