Shelter Belle is a beautifully appointed 1991 Bayliner 3888 Motor Yacht that blends comfort, performance, and proven Pacific Northwest cruising capability. Her semi-displacement hull, powered by twin 210 HP Hino turbo diesel engines, offers an efficient and stable ride perfect for exploring our region’s pristine waterways from the Gulf Islands to Desolation Sound and beyond.

Step aboard and you’ll immediately appreciate her thoughtful layout. The enclosed bridge keeps you warm and dry in any weather, with commanding visibility and full controls, while the hardtop cockpit provides a sheltered outdoor space ideal for fishing, crabbing, or enjoying sunset dinners at anchor.

Inside, the salon feels open and inviting with large windows for panoramic views. The lower helm station makes it easy to run the boat in cooler conditions without sacrificing comfort. To port, a convertible dinette offers additional sleeping space, and to starboard, the galley is fully equipped with a Princess 3-burner stove and oven, Frigidaire fridge/freezer, Whirlpool microwave, U-Line icemaker, and ample counter space.

Accommodations include two private staterooms: a forward master with an island berth and ensuite head, and a mid-stateroom with a double berth. The second head features a tub/shower, a rare luxury on a vessel of this size. Warm teak joinery, quality finishes, and a well-maintained interior create a welcoming, home-like atmosphere.

Her equipment list is extensive: Westerbeke 8kW generator, Garmin GPS, Furuno radar, Autohelm autopilot, VHF radios, and a West Marine RIB dinghy with Tohatsu 9.8 HP outboard on a Weaver davit system with electric winch.

Whether you’re dreaming of extended cruising, weekend getaways, or a comfortable liveaboard, Shelter Belle delivers. She combines the reliability and seaworthiness that Bayliner’s 3888 series is known for with the comforts and features to make every trip memorable.
