2020 Bayliner VR6 Bowrider I/O

The 2020 Bayliner VR6 Bowrider is a 22-foot fiberglass day boat built around space and accommodation. Powered by a single 250 hp MerCruiser inboard/outboard engine, it combines Bayliner's BeamForward hull design with their AftAdvantage concept to maximize usable cockpit area. The high gunnels and beam-forward profile create substantial passenger space and underseat storage throughout the boat.

The cockpit is the real focus here. The aft section features a self-draining design with an integrated swim platform positioned further aft than comparable models, freeing up interior room. Seating converts from traditional cockpit layout to a U-lounge configuration with the addition of an optional filler cushion, turning the aft area into a gathering space. An enclosed changing room sits forward, with the option to add a head—amenities typically found on larger boats.

This bowrider handles the details that matter on a family outing. The design accommodates both water sports and fishing through available customization options. The integrated swim platform and optional extension provide easy water access, while the overall layout keeps everyone comfortable whether the boat is running or anchored.
