The popular Bayliner 285 sports cruiser gives you 6-berth accommodation without the additional upkeep costs of having twin engines, and was one of the best selling sports cruiser of its size in the UK. Powered by a single Mercruiser 5.7L petrol engine offering smooth & quiet propulsion. Where the 285 really excels is the large well designed cockpit with enough space for friends and family to enjoy time together, the fixed radar arch supports the canopy and makes the canopy far easier to remove/refit.

Accommodation:

Easy access boat over the swim step through a gate in the transom into the COCKPIT area equipped with a foldaway forward facing folding bench seat on the transom and an aft facing fixed bench seat with a reversible backrest that separates the cockpit from the raised helm area. In addition to a single helm seat to starboard, there is an "L" shaped seating area to port.

A high radar arch rises over the cockpit area, and supports the removable canopy which encloses the entire cockpit area. The sides are removable to create a bimini cover for weather and sun protection. From the helm you step down and forward into the cabin area or step up and through a fold-aside center window section for access to the long foredeck and electric anchor windlass. 

The SALOON is cleverly designed to provide a surprisingly roomy and useful space for a 28 footer. The initial impression is of a much larger cabin because it is open all the way to the bow. However the fixed double FORWARD BERTH area can be separated by sliding curtains to form a "forward compartment" with a degree of privacy. The mid section is the main saloon with a functional galley on the port side and a dining table and two facing benches for seating opposite. The table lowers to make an additional double berth when required.

The GALLEY includes a covered two burner alcohol/electric stove and a sink with pressurized hot and cold water. The under-counter area is fully utilized for storage. A 240v microwave is fitted above the sink. Also provided is a 12v refrigerator opposite under the dinette seating. 

Aft of the dining area is a fully moulded wetroom / HEAD compartment with good headroom including sea toilet with holding tank, wash basin and shower.

Under the cockpit is another double AFT BERTH. A port hole into the helm area provides lighting to this space. When not used as a berth, this space provides a large storage area.
