2006 Bayliner 325 — A Straight-Up West Coast Weekender

If your idea of a perfect weekend is slipping the lines after work and waking up in a quiet cove, this Bayliner 325 fits right in. At 34 feet overall with an 11½-foot beam, she’s roomy enough for family or friends but still easy to dock, fuel, and maintain.

What makes her a good match for our coast

• Open cockpit, simple layout
• One level from the swim platform to the companionway means fewer trip hazards and plenty of seating for crab-pot runs, evening barbecues, or just spreading out with a pair of deck chairs and a blanket.
• Bright, usable cabin
• Six-foot headroom, big side windows, and a forward skylight keep the interior feeling open—even when the fall rain shows up. The forward berth and mid-cabin give two real sleeping areas, while the dinette converts if you need a third.
• Practical galley and head
• A two-burner stove, fridge, and microwave handle simple meals; the head includes a separate shower so you’re not drenching the whole room after a swim.
• Twin sterndrives—comfortable range
• Twin 5.0 MPI MerCruisers deliver a 23-knot cruise and the reassurance of two engines when you’re a little farther from home than planned. Quiet enough for conversation, economical enough for longer trips up the Gulf Islands, and the dual prop makes docking a breeze!
• Shore-friendly size
• You can still fit into 30-foot slips in busy marinas, drop anchor in tighter pockets, and cruise under most local bridges without anxiety—all without giving up a proper galley, stand-up head, and real beds.

From Friday nights on the hook at Keats to August runs up Desolation Sound, this 2006 Bayliner 325 gives you the comfort to stay out, the size to keep costs sensible, and the handling that lets one person manage without drama. She’s on the dock in Vancouver and ready for the next chapter.
