With a good tow vehicle and an early start, the practical range of a weekend trip expands from dozens of miles to hundreds of miles, increasing possibilities and offering a new location for each boating vacation. The Bayliner 245 was designed to fit this niche, with the roomiest layout and the most accommodations the company could fit into a trailerable boat.CabinThe midship berth is large enough to comfortable sleep two, and providing an extremely spacious dinette in the bow. A couple cruising on this boat will never have to unmake the bed to set up the table. With children on the boat the dinette can be converted to the forward berth.Full GalleyOn the 245 the galley is surprisingly spacious with a large sink, a real stove, a roomy refrigerator, and a decent microwave oven. The galley is set in the middle of the cabin beneath the large port side window, rather than tucked into a dark corner where many manufacturers place it. Bayliner provides an acceptable amount of storage and even a handrail just above the refrigerator, essential when making lunch while underway. Spacious HeadThe head is unusually comfortable for a boat this size as well, with plenty of room to stand in front of the sink without tripping on the toilet. The toilet is tucked slightly beneath the upper deck. There is an opening porthole just above the sink for fresh air, and a large window at eye level, allowing in plenty of sunlight. A curtain and extending faucet are provided for showering.TopsideAbove deck, the 245 is equally well laid out. The helm console includes plenty of room for electronics, and everything is conveniently located. The driver's seat is comfortable whether sitting or standing. To the left of the helm, a long L-shaped settee provides a relaxing place to stretch out with a book. Alternately, the backrest can be folded flat to make a sunpad, or folded forward to make the back half of the "L" into an aft facing bench seat. A folding bench seat across the transom and removable table then form a small dinette. The stern platform is accessed on the starboard side, with a latched door to keep children, pets, or loose gear from going overboard, and the platform includes a couple of handrails and a retractable swim ladder.Engine AccessThe engine is accessed through a large hatch in the back of the cockpit. The inside of the engine room is spacious and all equipment is extremely convenient to work on. For anything other than routine checks, the pneumatic lifts can be quickly disconnected and the hatch tied open, providing a very comfortable work area.Trailerable boats offer several advantages in addition to increased cruising area. Eliminating dockage fees, reducing winter storage costs, and lowering gasoline prices help keep boating more affordable, and keeping the boat out of the water reduces long-term maintenance requirements. Also, the ability to load and unload the boat in the driveway rather than transferring gear from house to car to boat and back saves valuable weekend boating time. While the elbow -room of a larger boat is enticing, give some thought to the advantages of a pocket cruiser, then take a look at the trailerable Bayliner 245.Details:Year: 2006Type: PowerBrand: BaylinerCategory: Express CruisersModel: 245 Cruiser SBLength (LOA): 24' (7.32m)Hours:50 (No Meter - Low Hours / Mercruiser mechanic can verify hours - engine looks brand new)Length Overall: 24'Beam: 8' 6"Weight: 4,200 lbsWater Capacity: 20 galsWaste Capacity: 20 galsEngine:Year:2006Brand:MercruiserModel: 5.0Hours: 50Size: 220 hpFuel Type: GasolineFuel Tank: 60 galsPropeller: AluminumDrive Brand: MercruiserDrive Model: Alpha OneDrive Type: Stern DriveAdditional Details:Pass.

We bought it into 2006 -- traded in our smaller boat. But somehow we never got into this, then the kids grew up, it was last registered in 2007. Literally almost never used.Please come and see this! You won't believe it, like it's been in a time capsule. Hull ID USBE23SKF606New Marine deep cycle batteryThere is not an hour meter on this, so I can't say how many hours. If I had to guess, I would say around 50? This can be verified: A Mercruiser tech can hook up a device to the motor and document the hours. I recently replaced the battery, and had a mechanic give it a thorough examination.For extras, we have a custom camper top as well as the Bimini top. Also a large assortment of life jackets, buoys, water toys and towables. I believe this boat is going to make somebody very happy..Call or text: 510 390 6402"Sold As is, Where Is"
