Bayliner 288 Flybridge w/ Mercruiser 4.2L 250HP Bravo III Diesel – £46,995

The Bayliner 288 is an excellent family cruiser… a fantastic step up from a cuddy cabin boat or smaller sports cruiser. At 30′ long, with a single diesel engine and bow thruster, it’s easy to manage around the dock and very economical to run and maintain. It’s also big enough to accommodate the whole family for weekends away, or large groups of friends for a day on the water.

For entertaining during the day there’s a large dinette in the lower saloon, a surprisingly spacious flybridge seating area, and a large aft cockpit, which together will accommodate up to 10 guests for lazy days afloat. There’s also sleeping accommodation for 5 in the cabin, plus a large galley, gas cooking facilities, warm air heating and an enclosed toilet and shower.

This particular example of the 288 Flybridge is in simply outstanding condition… we’ve known this boat since 2014 and have sold it previously. It has seen primarily fresh water use and has been impeccably maintained by her previous owners.

It has also benefitted from lots of recent upgrades in the last few years including – Bow Thruster, Flexiteek decking throughout, new Camper Canvas Covers for the flybridge and aft cockpit, new touchscreen Raymarine Axiom 9 RV Chartplotter/Fishfinder for the lower and upper helms, new ICOM VHF Radio, new Refrigerator, Flatscreen TV, etc, etc, etc.

All this is in addition to the comprehensive standard specification including Warm Air Heating, 240v Shore Power, Pump-Out Marine Toilet with holding tank, Gas Oven and Hob, Stereo, etc.

There is also a comprehensive history file with this boat. It had a full set of batteries in 2022. The boat is ready to go to the water for the 2024 season…

We previously sold this boat to her current owner inJune 2023.  The photos and video that you see here were shot then.  Since then the boat has been used on Ireland’s Inland Waterways, in fresh water only.  The boat has been meticulously maintained and upgraded since then.  It looks every bit as good now as it did then.  We will be shooting up to date video and photos of the boat in the very near future.  In the meantime this Bayliner 288 is immediately available for viewing at anytime on Lough Erne, Co. Fermanagh, Northern Ireland.
